Let's not forget that beyond the events, panels, and workshops there were even more cool fan selections to choose from to see and participate in!  And yes, even a little break or two in between yielded some nice things to see for the big Anime North convention experience.  The J-Rock room was completely decorated in J-Rock posters with magazines and plushies and always had something J-Rock related going on.  In the Art Room, attendees could stare in awe at the huge personal collection of toys and rare models from the Gundam universe provided by John Martin as well as all the cool art and models for sale or bid by fan artists.  Bandai also hosted the MechaYard Wars for the model kit enthusiasts just outside of the Dealers Hall.  And if you needed a refreshment or two, you could enjoy a rich delicious Bubble Tea at the Bubble Republic Teahouse.
