Happy Canada Day!
Yep! I know it's a few days late, but that's because I'm on holiday! Canada Day is 1st July (beat the Americans again by 3 days!) and it's a big thing here! Big celebrations and lots of Canada Day discounts and special offers in the shops.
Lilian and I went to one of the local parks which was hosting the celebrations with all sorts of activities going on for the kids. (Most of them free!) Representatives of the emergency services were there and we had a chat with one of the fire crews. (In a recent survey the police came out with an approval rating from the public of 89%! Can you imagine that in Northern Ireland)
The following day we met Pamela and her family in a different park and the kids went for a swim in the lake. Lilian and I took a walk around the lake with Caleb.
The next day we met them again at Dave and Stacey's house and we went to a small park just behind where they live, (lots of parks in Medicine Hat).
Kids played on the swings and Troy, (Pamela's husband) and I played with the aerobie, (a high performance frisbee.)
