Anyone know this senior lady from #Toronto who speaks Portuguese? She has memory loss. Maybe she's your neighbour?

BREAKING NEWS: Some kind of parade somewhere for some length of evening space-time. Last Pedestrian Sundays Kensington is today #PSK #Toronto and @… buzz says "we got a band!"
It's the stuff strange dreams are made of! Like Fellini 8½. Whereever it is. Dancing in the streets permitted, presumably. No streetcars will be harmed.
We rode over to Biidaasige Park with the kids this evening. It's a seriously beautiful place. In a few years, once the trees grow a bit, it will doubtlessly be one of the city's signature parks.

The trouble with Louis Armstrong's first movie is, well, there are two troubles, one is that it was widely considered dull, but beyond that while widely praised for the music, it is apparently missing.
I'm thinking, if anyone can find it, Fediverse can.
It did play Canada, including #Toronto in January 1931 and
YOWSA that was some #toronto parade! We left #christiepits at dusk, with 4 sousaphones, some number of trumpets, trombones, saxophones of all sorts, fire dancers and drums galore, and I'm told my notoriously loud banjo was actually heard above the chaos.
It's largely a blur, but I do recall an extended 2nd line paused in the centre of some intersection where a blocked streetcar called Hold was opposite another that seemed in business, so that suggests we were crossing College?! A fair hike from Bloor.
My feet hate me, but it was a magical night. All musicians volunteered, for many it was old-home catching up with others not seen in years, and dancers of all ages.
I pinged a few fellow players with my "THIS is what Music is for, what we do on a stage is only a simulation of this" and all agreed. That gives me hope.

#Toronto apparently has a Sake Crisis. LCBO tells me the nearest bottle is 50km away, the rest marked back order. We suspect the true bottler is US based 😔
That's Utility Sake; for cooking I'm not keen on paying premium for the nice stuff, though it may come to that. Time to research local brands.
