渡轮7加元,返程不查票。从大陆上的Jack Layton出发有3条航线,一直营运到近午夜12点,分别前往中央岛以及岛的东、西两端。龙舟节是在中央岛,所以中间线路最多人。

中国银联是本届龙舟赛的主要赞助商之一,在现场有抽奖活动。加拿大中国工商银行的银联卡可以办一个,出国提款手续费能省不少。

新华社在现场举办了丝绸之路摄影展。不少西人看了都大开眼界。有人第一次知道中国有沙漠,有人看到西北少数民族以为是犹太人。第二天丝绸之路当选世界文化遗产。

Honest Ed’s

Honest Ed’s is a landmark discount store located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is named for its proprietor, Ed Mirvish, who opened the store in 1948 and oversaw its operations for almost sixty years, until his death in 2007.

Honest Ed’s gained fame for its marketing stunts, including loss leader specials and free turkey giveaways before Christmas and Thanksgiving Day holidays. Mirvish is also famous in Toronto for the birthday parties he threw for himself from 1988 until his death, continued since then as anniversary parties for the store itself. At the street parties, there are free cakes, meals, hot dogs, candy, and giveaways. Crowds of Torontonians turn up with their children, and stand in long lines to receive these handouts. The happening is accompanied by live bands and balloons.
