Later that day we went to a fab Kalbi dinner at the Chois' in New Market. Ethan, Stellan, Petina, Jaida and Sonia on the swing.

August 25th. Toronto, Downtown

Pierre, Stellan and I went downtown on Queen Street to one of our favourite bookstores "Pages". It happend to be their very last day before closing for good... It's so sad to see all these small shops close down one by one with all their talents and knowledge going down the drain. It was one of the last underground book temples in Toronto and we're seriously gonna miss it!!! Check out excelent BoingBoing for more information:
