Fan Expo Canada 2013 (Picture Heavy)

One of the things I was really looking forward to this year was the Fan Expo held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. The event was held from August 22 to 25, and we were able to go yesterday. My husband and I took our eldest, and let me tell you, all of us were like kids in a candy store...well, maybe just me....:P

Below are some pics taken:)

Hulk Hogan was walking by to his autograph session.


The Walking Dead panel (Everyone was awesome....really....)

Glenn! (Steve Yeun)

What's a fan expo without the Daleks?

Kitt from Knight Rider

Batmobile! Squee!

Great cosplay this year.


The crowd....eeek! 


My son's fave part: Lego





Stormtroopers walking around

Joe Dante 
Linda Hamilton

Had the chance to get an autograph and a picture with James Hong, who's super adorable:) 


And the highlight of the event:
Boom! With Norman Reedus (aka Daryl Dixon from The Walking Dead)! 
Hope you guys enjoyed the pics:) This was our second year going, and I'm pretty sure it'll be another family tradition.

Have you been to any fan expos/comic cons?

Emmy, your face is lit up like a Christmas tree girl! I would've been the same. I'm a big Star Wars and Batman fan. I would've been tickled pink. Love that bat mobile. WOW that girl was daring in that princess leia outfit. HAHAHHA

Yu and your son must've had such a ball! I've never been to one of these but it always looks like a ton of fun. And lucky you to get a photo with Daryl!! I used to see him walking around in NYC before The Walking Dead became huge and he always seemed so low key :)

OMG OMG You met Daryl Dixon! That is so awesome! And I love Glenn too! Its so amazing that you have events like that and that you saw the whole Walking Dead crew! India is so lame :( And I can totally see that beaming smile on your face so I know you were definitely the kid in the candy store in this case! )

Oh and as for blogging, I use the WYSIWYG feature too since I dont know how to code, but my images have turned out sideways at times! Hence the post :)

Looks like a fun event. I love your top, and I am very curious about the Lego movie. I spent lots of time playing with it as a kid.

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
