Erk! Well, I hope the shooting victims were okay, and I guess it's good that it was sorted out before the festival. Even Melbourne has its places that are nice to visit during the day, but worrying to walk around alone at night...

I'll have to remember that - or at least liaise with you - if getting up to Toronto looks like an option. But then, you'd be the first person to know about such a trip, were we planning it. *hug*

Eight hours?? I can't help thinking that's art that would lead to one awful crick in the neck!
