Maps and info on the Distillery District We will meet at Balzac's Coffee House.
{you can call them at 416.207.1709 then hit option 1 for directions to it}
at 9:30 am. This will give us a short time before the buildings open. We can decide then if anyone is interested to later do downtown and Front St.
As for the Zoo.
There is an admission fee but it is worth it is you wish to take animal and people pictures.
Friday, Apr. 15 to Sunday, Apr. 24 is Creativity and Innovation week in Toronto and is a time that maybe better for us to go as a group, and who better to be creative than a group of photographers?
If enough go, we ARE eligible for a group rate. If we can get over 20 people to go we can get a 15% discount. We have to let them know ahead of time that we are coming (up to 2 weeks)
Group Discount Rates: For groups of 20 or more individuals,15%.

I'm in for the Zoo too and any others as well. I have been doing some checking about the Whitby Hosp. everything to date has been people just wandering in, no official permission. Last person I have found who was there was the 7th of March - no problem getting in however, not sure people are up for this type of activity.
As for this weekend, I think I have to pass, but I'm still trying to wiggle my way out of a previous (no fun) engagement.
I'm also looking around for some more Ontario/GTA outings that people might enjoy!

Chances are I will be making it but again not sure. Might have to do something tonight and don't know if I'll make it back by tomorrow. Count me in for all others tho.

space amoeba, cwyou also said they'd like to go there but didnt say whether they would come or not.
At this moment, I'm planning to show up. I really would like to get out and about a little, and the Distillery has been on my hit list for some time. Only snag is I have a lot of contract work to do, so it'll depend on how much I get done tonight. I'll do my best!
Oh, and I will have my partner along as well should I show up. She's not as much of a photog, but still quite nice to hang with, I assure you. :)
