Downtown Toronto’s Khalsa Day Parade

This weekend I attended the Downtown Toronto Khalsa Day Parade, just like I do every year!

This year a little more special because I was representing RIC Centre, the wonderful place where I work. I handed out almost 500 bags in the matter of an hour, and people were so happy!

The crowd was amazing… and this was before the parade came in:

I love stalking people and what they’re eating:

It just makes me smile when I see so many people gathered together to celebrate Vaisakhi:

A day well spent!

Cheers,

Amar

A beautiful spring day

I went on two amazing walks yesterday. One was around my neighbourhood, and another by the lake in Downtown TO. I was pondering away, so lost in my thoughts.

Sunlight galore:

The leaves hang on after a long winter:

And then I went downtown, and loved going on the Humber Bay Arch Bridge again!

Hope you have a lovely Sunday!

Cheers,

Amar

Maple Town at Mountsberg Conservation Area

Today, my family went on a hike to Maple Town at the Mountsberg Conservation Area in Milton (part of the Halton Conservation Parks)! It was such a calming experience. I’ve been in the need of a hike for a while… A lot of things have happened and my brain just needed a breather.

Here we go… photo time!

Saw this guy the moment we got into the park. These two buddies were making lots of sounds when my sister tried to get close, haha!

Gotta love tractors.

The walk to Maple Town started here

Part of the walk was crossing a railroad. They warned us to listen and look before we crossed… Of course, I had other ideas in mind:

Right smack dab in the middle of the railway line

Made my dad risk his life with me (haha)

More fun along the walk:

A girl passed behind me and said: “What does she even see here? Is there a turtle? Maybe I should take a photo of this too”… Little does she know, there’s beauty in everything.
