Every week you can go out at 1 am in the morning and the streets are full of thousands and thousands of people? Where you can look at some really amazing things? have VERY funny conversations with crazy artists? go on a ride in the middle of the street? lay down in the middle of union station without looking like a homeless person? I could go on and on...
I already mentioned that other people and big crowds do nothing for me we were out in a small group of 3 and I could care less if anyone else was out or not .. we were hanging out doing our own thing
exhibits had very little to do with us having fun - random conversations ftw!

If you say yes to these questions we gotta start hanging out... because my average nights are not like that...
We all had a blast... even if we barely saw any exhibits... Review to come later
LMAO ... Tbh i agree and disagree with Funkycrew, for the majorty of the people Nuit Blanche is a good tiem because of the people around you ... The "Art" is jsut a bonus and an excuse to walk around the city. However i think with out that excuse the mood wouldnt be there thus not resulting in the same kinda night ... the crowds play a huge role in this as well .... and provided great entertainment while walking around.

Hahha you guys are too nice ... it was so strange walking through that ... we didnt wait in line either
lol
Actaully i dont think we waited for more then 5 mins to see / get into anything ...
We started in Zone C -> B -> a bit of A
we saw alot of exhibits but if they were dull we left and went to the next one ....
anyways i will do a proper review in a bit ...
but to all of those i was meant to meet up with and didnt .. SORRY
and lastly.... Galt Studio -> Two Fold = FAIL to me

Margaret and I had an amazing night out (all 7 hours!) and don't have much of any complaints. Kudos for the city for hosting this type of event.

I had an OK night. Definitely not as good as last year, but not a complete waste of time either...the giant bunny was cool to see, the blind cage match was interesting but got boring really quickly, the city hall exhibit was crap compared to the lit up pong game and the light show we watched last year:
LOL. The giant pong game was my fav. part of last year's Nuit Blanche. So cool
I was really excited for it this year, but then I realized Tiesto was the same night and did that instead. I heard from my roommate, that i did it with last year, that it wasn't as good as last year's. And that the crowds and lines were even worse! I'm still sad I missed it though, it was one of the most interesting things I did in the city last year.

here's my in-depth review:
showed up at around 4am and saw union station which was pretty decent, the dead witch one which was a little creepy and went on an extended carnival ride because one of other rides slipped the operator some baileys, haha. I almost lost my voice yelling on that fucking ride so much!
the installations may not be the greatest but it's what you make of it.. and our crew made an excellent morning!
