At the Patrician Grill, which was used as a set for the DS episode "Victoria's Secret." The owner, Terry Pappas, loves to talk about being an extra. The Grill apparently is frequently used as a set for various television and film productions in Toronto. Yes, we were sitting in THE Booth. :-) |

Another shot of the Grill, this time outside, with the owner and extra-par-excellence, Terry. |

An exciting view in the parking garage under the airport Mariott. We got moved there (the hotel, not the parking garage!) from our original hotel downtown when our reservation got lost. We were lucky to find a place to stay at all, since it was the same weekend as Toronto Pridefest, which is apparently the largest Gay Pride celebration in North America! |

Chicago has cows, Toronto has Meece. Mooses? Mice? Whatever. :-) A prehistoric Lascauxesque moose, posing politely. |

A pretty verdigis moose with gold maple leaves and an inquisitive LaTonya. |

In Stratford, before the play. Beautiful little town, lovely river walk, great theatre, fabulous performance. |

I'd love to claim this gentleman as a friend, but unfortunately he's just an extremely kind actor named Juan Chioran at the stage door following the performance. Mr. Chioran played 3 roles in Hamlet: The Ghost, The Player King, and The Gravedigger. He was without a doubt the second-best reason to see the play (yes, I am slightly prejudiced, I admit it), and when he and Paul were onstage together sparks definitely flew. Follow this link for pictures of Paul Gross at the stage door after Hamlet. |
