O! Canada

Here we are again in Canada for Canada Day, third year in a row.  Newfoundland also has a memorial day in the morning, to commemorate the Battle of Beaumont-Hamel during World War I, in France.  The Newfoundlanders suffered huge casualties.  There was a sunrise ceremony on Signal Hill.  Sunrise here is 5 AM.

Then it is on to parades and family celebrations.


















This parade is along Water Street, the main shopping street.

















We stopped at Rocket Bakery.

Back up to Signal Hill and a tattoo.

A fitting celebrant.....a Newfie dog.

We heard the fireworks at 10 PM in our snug Rv.
