thanks for noticing snjr!! (icedragon has energised me today...)

what are traditional canaday festivities?

drinking beer, outdoor rock concerts, waving around little flags, mowing the grass or just hanging about...

i'll draw a maple leaf and pin it up on my cubicle for you.

you're sweetness itself, stephanie...

Some friends are having a giant 'July 2.5' party. Halfway between Canada Day and 4th of July. You should come johndevlin. It's on the beach in Vancouver.

thanks for the invite: shouldn't it be on the US/Canada border?

I hope the rain clears up soon! :(

me too: it's rainy here on the east coast. We had no fireworks in Halifax harbour last night due to the damp and fog... it's all put off till Monday

amazing day yesterday in the capital.

it should be mandatory for every Canadian to experience Canada Day in Ottawa once in their life.

yes, and I must do it too, once in my life. good to hear it was a great success...
