York University, North York

"People Are Nice Here"

Ending up at York University to attend a symposium on open source software at the Seneca College campus on York (after mistakenly going to the campus in Markham), I got off the bus and proceeded in entirely the wrong direction. I ended up at the gym (the one with “York Lions” on the building") and asked for directions. The lady at the counter gave me a map and told me to go in a diagonal line that she charted out, and to ask people if I’m going the right way. I said “so people are nice here, then”. She agreed with that statement, and sent me on my way, clear across campus. Moral of the story: when looking at maps on in York, the red arrow is not the “you are here” symbol, but rather you have to look at the blown up part in the corner.

Rustic Cosmo Cafe, Queen St. West

Wireless

Blast! No power outlets, so bring your spare battery if you have a laptop. I dig the aesthetic though: brick walls, booths, portraits on the wall. And it’s a Wireless Toronto access point, so if you have the juice, then you can at least get connected.

Gullfoss, South Iceland

So Windy!

We drove up to the gift store and after we asked if we could (should?) walk down the wooden plank, one of the employees suggested driving down to the waterfall (“500 meters that way”, he said). It was the windiest spot I’ve ever been at!
