Toronto Photo Walks: East Meets West I

Well a couple of weeks ago we tried a grand experiment. Our photo walk group was to get together with the Missisauga photo walk group. It kinda succeeded. The walk was to start in High Park and meander around it. It is a great area to walk in. A lot of paths, scenery, the zoo, and the pond area. Usually it's a great area to walk in. This day not so much. It started raining early in the morning and didn't let up till late afternoon. Needless to say that we few that showed up, including two from the Missisauga group called it quits either at lunch or afterwards. Still it we had fun and had some interesting pictures.

Toronto Photo Walks: Victoria Park and St. Clair II

Walking through the park we kept coming across bridges that were out. Here and there we saw them on the banks of the creek. We had received a heavy rainfall a few days before, and the guess was that the bridges had been washed out on that day. It made it difficult for me, and the group, since there was one cache on the other side. I did manage to cross over and get it eventually. After lunch at a local pub we carried on. One of my fellow walkers wanted to see what I was doing so I took her with me in solving a multi-cache. Alas we didn't find the end point. I believe we were in the right area though. I will have to check back to see if it was just me, or if it is missing in action.

Toronto Photo Walks: Victoria Park and St. Clair

Last weekend, on the 4th of this month, was another photo walk. The area was down around Victoria Park and St. Clair as the title suggests. Starting off from Victoria Park subway station and meandering through Taylor Creek Park. It was a scorcher of a day and the shade and trees at the start were good for relief.
I had showed up really early for some geocaching as well. Someone on Google Plus had shared a link and I have gotten the bug a bit. In more ways then one it seems. So besides walking, talking, photographing, I disappeared from the group time to time to go seek out these mysterious caches. Next time, I will wear long rugged pants.
