Canada Day

Today Canada is 139 years old! Miranda and I ususally go to City Hall for cake and celebration, but this year I decided we would try something different, and we went to the Legislature Building instead.

We wandered inside the Legislature Building (online tour here) and watched the Ukrainian dance group (Volya) perform in the ampitheatre. The pools were a bit too crowded for Miranda's liking, so we went to City Hall, where the celebration was wrapping up and the crowd was smaller. At City Hall, we visited the petting zoo and then Miranda went in the pool.

We also saw the High Level Streetcar, decked out for Canada Day. Miranda and I might take a ride on it tomorrow! We are definatley going back to the Legislature grounds to soak in the sun.

I took a lot of photos, please have a look because they are nice. :)

City Hall petting zoo and pool

At story about being at City Hall... there was a family (mum, dad, boy, girl) who were standing by us in the pool. The kids called each other "brother" and "sister" (Sister, come in the water.), and when the parents were talking to one kid about the other kid, they referred to them as "brother" and "sister" also (Go walk with Brother to the other side.).
