rfmcdonaldYesterday was rather busy. I met ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
finfan just outside the Yonge-Bloor TTC, and we went for an ejoyable lunch at a nice cheap Middle Eastern restaurant just to the south. We tarried a bit there and had to rush south to meet up with raphinou at the College TTC for the parade.
My impressions? It was my first one, and frankly I wish that I was a bit closer to the action. I did enjoy what I saw, though: the straight men making out with their girlfriends, the different ethnic and NGO floats, the throwing of free merchandise.
I split at a quarter to five to meet up withlandsmand. Later that evening, I went to Young Thailand (81 Church Street) for an eminently enjoyable dinner with raphinou, alecsebastien, and vorpal. (vorpal, incidentally, is the fourth LJ-friend I'd met this weekend.)
For comparison, readraphinou's impressions here, and check out the last two photos here.
