CanadaDay has always been a great celebration, not the loud brashness that you come to expect from the fourth of July, but a collection of things that make this country so great. I started the day at the Langley Canada Day Festival at McLeod Athletic Park. Langley Canada Day Celebrations has
grown to be the biggest two day event in the Langley's and one of largest
Canada Day celebrations in the province. http://www.langleycanadaday.ca/
It was hard to believe how much there was to offer, petting zoo's, continuous stage show, children's rides/games, aircraft static displays, Crafter's Alley, Vendors, marketplace, special community exhibits by gymnasts, firefighters, merchants and special community groups as well as live musical entertainment from local talents.
RE/MAX was out in full force as well, they sponsored the first aid tent of course, they had a RE/MAX balloon out as well!!
One of the more interesting things was a V8 Powered Custom motorcycle from Azzkikr Customs http://azzkikr.ca/azzkikr/ can you imagine, how about towing your boat behind this one!!
But my personal favorite was the Dam's Lincon Mercury

Monster Truck!!
This was a very popular ride! I wish I had waited in the enormous line to get my chance, but alas it was too hot to stay put that long!
After the Canada day address I went to one of my favorite Pubs The Dubblin
Crossing in Langley/Surrey http://www.dublincrossing.com/home.html if you have never been GO!
It is quite the treat, they have my favorite Harp on tap, very hard to find anywhere
What good would living on the wet coast bring if we did not get to the beach??
I went chill'in http://www.tasteofwhiterock.com/articles/chill042007.html on White Rock Beach to soak up some of
the festivities on the beachfront and pier.
Just like the Langley festivities live music was a huge draw for the White Rock crowd.
I was able to catch a set of the Sumner Brothers, one of my favorite local acts with special guest Jim Black on the Guitar, at ChillÕin I ran into some friends at Mercedes Benz of Vancouver, if you are in the market for a new Mercedes, I whole-heartily recommend you see Adrian http://www.mbvancouver.com/index.cfm?id=3314
Looking forward to another great year in this beautiful Country, thanks to everyone for making it a wonderful celebration.
