- ABC Mart Ximen
Sympathetic shopping encouraged by Easycard charged with Taiwan the Lucky Land promotion, accepted for merchandise purchases. Found Nike Air Monarchs to replace very old New Balance soles that developed a crack. Happy to find mens 6.5 size shoes in Asia, they're rarely available in North America. ((ABC Mart, Emei Street, Wanhua District, Taipei City, Taiwan) 20231012 - Imperial Pub
In the west room, family came to watch @adriank_yee in Musicians Anonymous jam hosted by @thepom.co . Groove feels like the San Francisco in the 1960s, better than the more univeral 12-bar blues. First in a series expected to repeat on Wednesday evenings, had some slight pauses to run an extension cord across the room, the electronics were drawing too much power off one circuit. (Imperial Pub, Dundas Street East, Toronto, Ontario) 20221102 - Sake bar
Samples of alcohol in Japan not an attraction. Six hour layover have opportunity to clear up email unavailable when in China. (ANA Lounge, International, Haneda Airport) 20160319 - St Pancras Station
Cornelia Parker (2015) Eclipse suspends a negative image of the Dent clock in front of the original. The perspective of dark and light faces changes as pedestrians walk around the station. (St. Pancras station, London, England) 20151121 - New Hopper Hut
Puzzling through Sri Lankan menu after planned Malaysian restaurant found closed. Ordered chicken lampries, served paper bag which enclosed banana leaf, then boiled egg, rice, anchovies inside. Also had string hoppers (rice noodles) with mutton curry and sambal. First time for this cuisine, need a dictionary. (New Hopper Hut, Ellesmere Avenue, Scarborough, Ontario) 20160422 - Metro Hall east passage underground
North wall by Art Team 1994 of 14 students, executed by Andrew Owen. On path from underground shopping to the east, escalators up the west. Thousands of office workers and visitors must pass by the artwork daily. South wall has a different theme. Where are these students, 20 years later? (Metro Mural Art Team 1994, Metro Hall, Toronto) 20151027 Students listed: Caroline Falby & Shingo Shimizu (East York); Matthew Hansen & Rhea Trembath (Etobicoke); Venus Mangilinan & Michell Selvaraj (Metro Separate); Matthew Chapman & Troy Marryshow (North York); Andrew Buchanan & Teresa Van Pinxteren (Scarborough); Cassidy Phillips & Sarah Hollenberg (Toronto); Karina Castro & Mateusz Krepicz (York). - Centre for Social Innovation Spadina
Special community lunch @csiTO prepared by @NewcomerKitchen, drawing attention to conditions following recent earthquakes in Syria and Turkiye. First speaker direct from Syria a few days ago, spoke about difficulties with cold weather even before the earthquakes. Supporting groups locally in Toronto packing supplies to be airlifted to the region, and doctors reaching out across the ocean. (Centre for Social Innovation, Spadina Avenue, Toronto, Ontario) 20220222 - Scarborough Health Network, Centenary Hospital
The first day recovering from surgery for my father, vital signs all look fine. We expect to visiting this semi-private room daily until he's well enough to return home. Easing back onto solid food, a period of disorientation after general anaesthesia seems normal. (Scarborough Health Network, Centenary Hospital, Ellesmere Road East, Scarborough, Ontario) 20220908 - Heartland
Halftime show is highlight for non-fans of professional sports, with an ex-varsity football player providing commentary this year. Resumption of annual Superbowl party tradition a reason to celebrate, after some years of pandemic shutdowns. Representation from our family members was low due to travel schedules, we invited a few friends to round up the numbers. (Heartland, Mississauaga, Ontario) 20220212 - Stackt Market
Walls labelled by @franceshilaryhahn (2024) This Side, That Side with two classic beach identical beach chairs for @DesignTOFest. Designed as interactive, the difference comes from the person expressing a preference. Somehow feels wrong to sit on an art object as fragile as summer furniture. (Stackt Market, Bathurst Street, Toronto, Ontariio) 20240127 - Costco Scarborough
Not a trip to outer space, but an assessment in a soundproof chamber in a hearing centre. Tympanometry test found eardrums moving as normal. Speech discrimination excellent in right ear and good in left, but tone testing showed moderate to severe slope in hearing loss. A hearing aid would mostly increase volume to make listening easier, but the patient declined for now. (Costco Hearing Centre, Warden Avenue, Scarborough, Ontario) 20230510 - Fortune Seafood Restaurant
Cake topped with fresh fruit to celebrate grandfather's birthday (on the Western calendar) slightly early, and Noah's birthday slightly late. Courses of Vancouver crab, Peking duck, white cut chicken, pork chop, beef with greens, grouper tofu in pot, all finished off by our sons. Restaurant is operated by a new owner since the many years we've been here, the quality will see us return. (Fortune Seafood Restaurant, Midland Avenue, Scarborough, Ontario) 20230225 - SFIA BART Station
Morning arrival at SFO, unexpectedly rainy. Beating traffic through San Fran and over bridges via easy public transportation. Will have experience of Bay Area north for the next few days. (San Francisco International Airport BART station, California) 20161016 - The Gardens at Heather Farms
Wedding of Julie and Kevin, exchange of vows and rings, conducted by a non-religious officiant. Event was well-attended by a large family group, and many friends. Late afternoon ceremony had practically perfect weather conditions. Reception, dinner, and dancing into evening. (The Gardens at Heather Farms, Walnut Creek, California) 20160618 - Dim Sum King
Spring Festival dinner with the Lowkong Society started with karaoke before the meal was served. During dinner, more karaoke was invited from the audience, drawing a variety of Cantoneese and English lanugage selections. Our family joined in, both with less-than-harmonious vocals and hiphop dancing. (Dim Sum King, Dundas Street West, Toronto, Ontario) 20220513
