As my sweetie said: Bagpipes, drums, and didgeridoo -- together at last.

Quintessential Canada Day scene: happy revellers, lots of flags and red-and-white, noise-makers, a bare chest, and, of course, a cell phone.

I took many more photos than are shown above, and I've selected a slightly larger subset for your extended viewing pleasure. If you're interested in seeing more, click on the thumbnails below! This fuller set will be captioned soon, I promise.
O Canada Day! I was sad to miss the Ottawa festivities, especially seeing as I'd been expecting to be there for most of the year. Still, The Move is over, and it was worth it. Great photos, especially the fireworks.
For sure though: next year in Ottawa...
