It's the St. Lucia piano by Joy Andre.<br />Good luck with your piano pilgrimmage!<br /><br />-Josh's MomJLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12494013833663341320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554168169111368050.post-5654899285105121782012-07-18T10:33:29.006-04:002012-07-18T10:33:29.006-04:00I'm on my own pilgrimage.

Here's where I encountered Mr. "Maple Leaf Rag" (see another blog - played it 20 times!). It's a long piece, so I decided to come back another time.<br /><br />From my start at Nathan Philips Square on July 13, up to late afternoon of July 17, I've played 33. It could have been 39, but:<br /><br />St. Lawrence Market - locked at 7:00 July 13, then gone (I couldn't find it) July 14, and again July 16). Maybe they moved it inside? Damaged and taken away? Stolen?<br /><br />Sam McBride ferry, July 17 8:45: thought I'd get on early to start the day (I live Queens Quay), but this ferry didn't start operating until 11:00. I'll be back.<br /><br />Trinity Bellwoods July 17 10:30: I just missed it being taken away. Damage from rain and 'sketchy types' wreaking havoc on it.<br /><br />Cawthra Park July l7 2:00: locked - what? The receptionist at the 519 Community Centre was disinterested and frankly a bit rude.<br /><br />Music Garden July 17 3:30: locked - threat of rain? it was still sunny!<br /><br />So, of 39 pianos (I believe) that remain, I've 5 to go.<br /><br />P.S. pianos were of varying degrees of playability. The one at Queens Park Circle, sadly, is a write off.<br /><br />Trinity Bellwoods<br />Cawthra Park, July 1dozaki62noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554168169111368050.post-47032608515814154542012-07-18T09:47:47.693-04:002012-07-18T09:47:47.693-04:00Gorgeous pianos, Josh!

I am so glad that you have had a chance to see (and play) almost all of them, and it has been a pleasure to witness your adventures. What flavour ice cream did you get at Greg's? I LOVE Greg's ice cream! xo Auntie RitaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
