The first Canada Day celebration was held in Central Park and my roommate Julie (who is Canadian) was very excited about being around fellow Canadians. I joined her and it was a fun event. A little on the small side, which is not what we expected from the information given online. There was a cooking demonstration that was only one table and a "Taste of Canada" that was only two tables of food for purchase. No Canadian beer was provided (which was what I was hoping for). During the day a ball hockey tournament took place and there was a kids table set up to make crafts. In the evening there was a concert with Canadian artists performing. It was a pretty warm day but nice in the shade. We were there for like 8 hours, but a fun time celebrating Canada!
Today for Canada Day Julie made a jello dessert with strawberries on top. Pretty yummy!
Next up, 4th of July. We're having a pretty bad storm and it is expected to rain for the next few days. :(
