Alley Graffiti Tour

I was in Toronto a while back, on one of my rare visits. Gorgeous day, and decided to wander up the lane ways. Some fun graffiti to be found there.

 The alley and buildings behind the Tranzac Club, my destination.

Not sure what lane way this, not sure what two streets it’s between. Up near Bloor anyway.

 Kensington Market.

The laneway behind Queen, near Bathurst.

Nice to see this article, which articulates some of my thoughts about these laneways.

The Beaches

Was in Toronto for a rare visit last week. Covered 13 kilometers on foot on Sunday and and another 28 on Monday. Both days were beautiful, and I wanted to both hit a few shops and also just to walk for walkings sake. One of the places I went to was the Beaches (although some call it just the Beach.)

On one of the rock breakwaters.

Looking back towards Toronto in the west. When I used to live out here, I came out to the breakwaters almost daily for an evening smoke and listen to tunes on headphones.
