March 24th: Sleepy Day, but good

I had a great time with maiac and two other online friends at dinner last night. And have had a productive day today.

I have never been to a Greektown (wonders if the states even have one...). Love Greekfood!

[maiac]

Detroit has a notable Greektown, which quite a few fine restaurants. It's no longer a residential neighborhood, but it's still associated with the Greek immigrants who settled there.

Thanks. That is very good to know. Now that I think about it New Symrna in FL is Greek settled though I don't remember a distinctly Greek air to it.

It's so interesting, how neighbourhoods change. We have a couple of Little Italys in Toronto too, though the Italians have been moving to a more northern neighbourhood for a while. So one of them is gradually changing to Portugal instead.

I love the concentration of Greek restaurants and stores along Danforth Avenue, though, where we were on Friday night. Greek food is great! And with the odd exception, most of it is so healthy and not heavy.

I had a lovely time this weekend! While you were editing, I was back at the AGO, and now my memory is full of ship models and Canadian art.

Ooh, so you did get back to the ships! Such detail, eh? I've never been a ship fan, particularly, but I spent at least an hour down there when I first discovered that exhibit.

[maiac]

I'm not a big ship fan, either, but such detailed, exquisite work is fascinating.

That's what really drew me: the details that were so exact that you felt you could almost step onto the ships and find them in working order.
