My Victoria Day (我的Victoria Day假期)


We didn't go anywhere for the long weekend.  I planned to go to The Distillery District to complete my unfinished painting. However, the booths blocked most of my view. Went back to the car, I felt at least I needed to do something before I left. I saw a senior crossing the road with a walker rollator. I put her on my sketchbook, adding the background for her as well.


One of my favorite ramen restaurants is Kinton. We always go there whenever we come to the downtown area. I love to sit at the bar table and watch the staff preparing the ramen, using a fire gun to cook. 


Before going back home, we went to St Lawrence Market. I have found a good spot under the shade. It was not much traffic. People were walking the dogs, buying lunch. Everyone seemed to enjoy a relaxing afternoon.


在Victory Day的長週末,我們沒有像其他人出外旅遊,反而去了Downtown Toronto享受了城市中的清靜。本想去Distillery District完成未畫完的寫生畫,但因為那裡有活動,那些攤位都把我想畫的景阻擋著,一心來到,又不甘心什麽都沒有做便離開,坐上車之際,看見有位婆婆拿著助步車過馬路,便把她速寫下來,也為她配上了背景。

之後我們便去了Kinton吃拉麵,這家是我們喜愛的拉麵店,好吃有特色,氣氛很熱鬧。我們坐在Bar檯,看到員工在煮拉麵和用火鎗燒豬肉,便把他們寫下來了。

最後我們去了St Lawrence Market,在附近我們找到一個合適的位置,就畫下來。人和車也多,大部份經過的都是附近住的人,他們有的在放狗,有的是買外賣,每個人都很享受這個長週末的最後一天假期。
