Canada Day Party


In true Bermuda style, we celebrated Canada Day on the beach. The group "Canadians In Bermuda" organized a party where $10 got you a membership, 3 drinks and a burger/hotdog. Not bad. Hundreds of Canadians (and those who just wanted to join in the festivities) piled on a rather small beach and ate, drank and swam while serenaded by every Canadian hit ever made. When I arrived, Alannah Myles was playing, and of course we heard "If I had a Million Dollars", some Brian Adams and let's not forget Nickel Back and Amanda Marshall. Lord help us.

However, music aside, it was a great party! Every square inch was covered by beach towels and umbrellas. The water was quite rough that day which made swimming fun. But, me trying to be cool with my sunglasses on and a drink in hand didn't quite work when a wave had a better idea and send me flying.
