It was great that we travelled to Canada at a time when we could experience Canada Day – especially Canada Day in a small town. Canada Day is the national day of Canada. It is a federal statutory holiday to celebrate the anniversary of Canada becoming a country on July 1,1867. Its original name was Dominion Day! Well Canada Day celebrations are a lot different than Hong Kong’s anniversary day. The parks are filled with people, competitions, bands, dancing and all sorts of fun activities. Look at the picture this is me walking on stilts. It was a ton of fun, but quite difficult as well, because stepping on them takes quite a bit of balance, but walking on stilts, now that takes even more concentration and balance!!! 😚😚😚😚😚 The night ended with fireworks. They were not anything like Hong Kong’s fireworks, but it was great to see everyone come down to the water’s edge to water the display. It was also great to see so many people talking, dancing, and having fun together. It made me feel like everyone knew each other and were best friends, but Eric explained that this is just the Canadian spirt. WOW! I love the Canadian spirit!
