Big on Bloor Festival 2013

Bloordale village closed Bloor Street to vehicles and held a massive street party in #Toronto between Dufferin and Landsdowne. The July 20-21, 2013 weekend event saw 70,000 people walking the street and enjoying the entertainment, activities, vendors and culinary treats lining the route.

I could have used the Bike Pirates yesterday - my bicycle chain broke!

The children's play area was back again this year and I really think the floating, see through balls the kids climb into are really cool. I didn't see a dunk tank this year so that was a bit disappointing.

I like how the street dips and you can look far down the street to see the vast amount of people taking in these local, city-building festivals that celebrate the arts, culture, community and small business. Nestle sponsored the main stage and was giving out little chocolate bars, hmmm, chocolate.
