Time Flies
Well that week certainly happened. It went by very fast and I forgot to write stuff down. Partially out of how busy I was and partially because nothing really happened.

Diana The Musical
Diana, the musical is really princess. Diana‘s life story told in musical form. I had the honor and privilege of seeing the musical production when it came to Netflix and it was worth the wait. One time I was in New York City and I happen to find a brochure advertising the musical play And that’s how I found out that they were doing Diana the musical and that’s how I found out even existed at all. I would imagine it was on West End too, which is the London equivalent to Broadway whereas Broadway is the American equivalent to the west end and vice versa. Diana, the musical is really really good. The songs are great and this is the new age of Broadway because they they’ve actually found new ways to do the set designs and what not it’s very futuristic. It’s very cool as it should be. The singers are spot onand it all works very well.

Forest Skating Trails Are a Winter Wonderland: Here Are a Few to Try Across Canada. AI-Generated.

Snow clings to pine branches, the air is crisp against your cheeks, and your skates carve gentle lines into smooth ice that winds through towering trees. Forest skating trails are more than just a winter activity — they are an immersive experience that transforms the coldest season into something extraordinary.

Sicily’s Public Mourning and the Quiet Life of Smaller Towns
During my trip to Ragusa, Modica, and Pozzallo, one of the first things that caught my eye was the posters plastered on walls and noticeboards announcing deaths. Known locally as avvisi funebri, these public notices are Sicily’s way of informing the community about a passing and providing funeral details. Each one features a photo of the deceased, their full name, and messages from family members, often adorned with religious iconography, including angels, saints, or delicate floral motifs. Unlike other countries, where obituaries are tucked away in newspapers or buried in digital archives, in Sicily, death is public, shared, and intimately woven into the rhythm of daily life. You might see a poster as you walk past a corner café or near a bakery, a gentle reminder of mortality interlaced with the everyday sounds of scooters and church bells.

Venice: The City I Loved but Couldn’t Recognize
Venice has always held a special place in my heart. I spent two years there completing my master’s studies, and it was where my extrovert side truly emerged. I went from shy to connecting with over 800 people in my first year alone. Days were filled with endless pasta and fine wine, nights spent exploring hidden gems, and the kind of immersive experiences that only living in the city can offer.

Introduction While I was walking in Pannett Park, I noticed the lamp post above and found it was presented to Whitby from its sister city, Anchorage, in Alaska. Below is the plaque, and then I remember the statue of Captain Cook on West Cliff that has a similar inscription, but I don't have a personal picture of this. I found this:
