The lobster is an iconic element of the image of Prince Edward Island internationally. On my recent trip, I had many encounters with the species and its representation.
There was, for starters, my encounter with a prepared lobster at Fisherman's Wharf in North Rustico.

There was also my visit to Summerside, at the time in the middle of its lobster festival.


Bakin' Donuts had a nice lobster roll dinner.

The Anne of Green Gables Store in Charlottetown, meanwhile, featured a huge plush lobster perched menacingly above Anne Shirley and Diana Barry.

I'd also like to share again, from last year's trip, Sandy Carruthers's 2013 sketch Lobster! depicting a beach-going community under attack.

Sufficiently rested and caffeinated, with my devices energized, I am now set to embark out on the town for this year's Nuit Blanche. I like the event: the individual works aside, there's an energy to the night that I like.
What about you? If you are in Toronto, will you or will you not be partaking, and why? If you are not, have you done events like this before or are you likely to if you get the chance in the future?
