A yearly successful celebration of Toronto's biggest Latino culture. As always, St. Clair and its adjoining streets are closed. I specially like the participants as they showcase Latin life; the beat of pulsating music, passionate dancing, fiery foods, and the free Salsa dance lessons.
I have witnessed the lively music and dance on the street. Watch for this festival and I am sure you will have a lot of fun. Show off your best dance moves. Show off your Salsa best beat!
For updated yearly schedule, please refer to the website provided.

Tastes of Thailand offered a wealth of activities that surely made a mark to event goers who like cultural dance and music.
I have enjoyed the parade of native Thai costumes. It was colourful. You will also taste the Thai food in the many booths that was installed on the street. The mouth watering taste of noodle dish, satay, tamarind tofu, shrimp and vegetable spring rolls, and a variety of delicious curry.

I've heard several people comment that Torontonians are cold and unfriendly. I can see how they might get that impression, but I think their conclusion is wrong.
Most people in Toronto are indeed friendly, but because it is a big city with a lot going on, people will seldomly greet a stranger on the street or things like that. If you spoke to someone you are likely to find them warm, helpful and friendly.
I think because Toronto is more crowded than most other areas of Canada, people try to give each other space by not always greeting each other on the street or striking up conversations in elevators and things. Leave a Comment

You will be able to experience a real country farm, not far from home at the Applewood Farm Winery. Applewood is not only for apples. It is famous for Fine Wines, Strawberries, Pumpkins, and Gift Baskets.

Ontario is famous for strawberry picking in June and apple picking in September. You may also pick your own pumpkins in Applewood Farm in Stouffville in the month of October.
Applewood Farm & Winery is a great destination for young and old to enjoy a little bit of the country, close to the city. We have been visiting the farm for many years and the photos I posted here were taken on one of those visits. It is a convenient place to pick strawberries, apples, and ......Pumpkins. You may also purchase delicious pumpkin pie at their store.
Visit the website for more information about Applewood Farm & Winery. Address. Telephone. Direction.

The community is found at Wellesley subway station. There is a main stream theatre just west of College station which usually has a LBYT themed movie or two. Church st. has many restuarants, bars, clubs, and the 519 community centre which serves mostly queers, homeless men, and has a heart for the james town community children. Buddies in bad times theatre is a hit. So is fem cab, in march, put on by nightwood theatre. Check out for NOW or Extra newspapers. The library yorkville branch (close to the Metro Refrence Library) has a great LGBT selection. There is a metro community church, pride celebrations in June, the omega centre for spirtuality... and lots more. Check out extra for community and events listings. LSBN on the internet is a great site Leave a Comment
