Lazy start to the day, the girls are taking part in the Canada Day parade as part of the Fredericton Pony Club.

.

The parade was great fun with lots of people and entries into the parade, marching bands, and flags everywhere. The girls looked great and everyone was smiling on this sunny day.

.

Dinner at the Chickadee Lodge. Guy and Christine were our first friends in Canada we stayed at their lodge during our research visit in 2003. Dinner was a BBQ and Guy is something of a gourmet BBQer, the food was great. We eventually left about 9pm and headed into Fredericton for the firework display.

I had never seen so many people in Fredericton! We had a real traffic jam at midnight when everyone tried to leave..... It almost lasted for 30 minutes!
