It is always so much fun wandering around downtown and everyone seems to be is such good spirits with so much Canadian pride showing. And then they always have a fantastic fireworks display to finish it all off with. So glad that you went and had a great time despite the weather and long line ups. :-)Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-51039921067501910672017-07-02T18:42:28.940-04:002017-07-02T18:42:28.940-04:00We made it to Ottawa to celebrate Canada 150 and d...We made it to Ottawa to celebrate Canada 150 and despite the rain and T-showers, the long lines and security, it was good to be here. Flags, beer, poutine, Beavertails, music and fireworks. Lots of diversity. Lots of high spirits, school kids from all over Canada.

I am native to America as a Navajo/Zuni/Jimenez mix lineage. However, we dub our family as the united nations. Some of my nieces and nephews are part Czechoslovakian, some part African (don't know which tribe), and many of other mixed Caucasian lineage (my granddaughter fits into this category. Her mother doesn't know much about her family). Other family members are part Mexican (my Aunt says her family came from Spain). Our family tree is huge and needed a computer app to fit in most of them but we have many empty spaces because my daughter has not kept up with the tree. We started a family web site to enter new born family members or newly married couples but still hard to maintain the family tree history. Again, happy Canada Day.
