Planning to Plan for TCAF

 


The Toronto Comics Art Fest recently updated their website with many details about this year's event, including some featured guests and the fest's annual poster. Most important for me, the dates (last weekend of April), a COVID safety protocol (puts me at ease), and hotel information. 

That last one has changed. It's no longer the hotel I stayed at pre-pandemic (that seems to have shut down, sadly). The fest's new hotel of choice is in a different location, but still within a short, seemingly manageable walk to TCAF's venue. 

With that change in mind, and also because I haven't travelled anywhere outside of Ottawa independently in almost four years, I'm taking a reasonable amount of extra time to pre-plan for this trip.

In just a few days, I've bookmarked pertinent websites, saved an image of TCAF's 2023 poster for motivation, and meticulously examined both Google Maps AND Google Earth to have a look at the hotel's location and its surrounding neighbourhood, making notes of walking time, distance, directions, and nearby shops and eateries, of which there appears to be a satisfyingly broad selection.

Getting extremely pumped for this, and all digits remain crossed in anticipation for when the real planning can begin.

Cheers!
