Julia had a busy Canada Day. We started off in the backyard in the morning. Julia played in her pool and sand box with Mommy and Auntie Weezie. After her nap, we all went to Chinguacousy Park for Canada Day celebrations. Chinguacousy Park is a large park in the heart of Brampton/Bramalea. It has farm animals, ponds, gardens, lots of geese and ducks, childrens playground and even a ski hill. On Canada Day they have carnival rides, games and, in the evening, fireworks. Julia played the floating duck game and came up with a "large" prize (it's about the size of my fist), a furry duck.

Afterwards, Julia was brave enough to go on the carousel with me. At first she wouldn't sit on the horse but eventually she worked up enough courage to sit on it for a few times around. Julia cried a bit and wanted mommy. After the ride I asked her, "Do you want to go again?". "No, no, no!". So that was it for the rides.

They had a Metis booth there selling Metis stuff. This was Julia's first glimps at her "peeps". We didn't buy anything.

We ended the day at the farm animals. Julia liked the pigs the best I think. We left the park before dinner so we didn't see any fireworks. Maybe in a couple of years Julia will be old enough to keep herself up that late to see them.
