Your Beacon Hill stroll just got a double dose of Hazels Ice Cream.

Your Next Ice Cream Adventure Just Got Mobile

Good morning from the island — we're still here, the orcas were spotted at Active Pass, and honestly, life is fine.

Well, here's the thing. While you were enjoying the quiet hum of the float planes or perhaps a stroll through Beacon Hill Park, City Hall was busy issuing new business licences. And one name popped up twice, making me wonder if summer might finally be extending its stay. We're seeing *Hazels Ice Cream Ltd* receive two separate licences for a bicycle vendor, both listed as "BUSINESS - MOBILE." This suggests a delightful doubling down on bringing frozen treats directly to our streets. Is it one bike, twice licensed? Or two separate bikes? Only time will tell as we look for them pedaling around.

### What Else Is Brewing?

Beyond the promise of mobile ice cream, a few other notable licences were issued:

* **Arcadia** (Licence #48095) is opening an amusement centre at 707 Johnson Street. Perhaps a new spot for a bit of playful diversion? * A new **Downtown Veterinary Clinic** (Licence #22734) has arrived at 736 Caledonia Avenue, which is always a welcome addition for our furry companions. * And for those keeping their home networks humming, **Island Key Computer Ltd** (Licence #5202) is now at 495 Superior Street, offering various computer services.

These new additions, particularly the mobile ice cream, speak to the ever-evolving pulse of our city. It will be interesting to see where Hazels Ice Cream Ltd chooses to set up shop first. Keep your eyes peeled, Victoria.
