Probably a bit of work during the day. A drink or two in the evening, then wander down to the promenade to watch the fireworks.

I'll probably do the same on Monday as the fireworks in Blaine are usually better and we get a great view from the pier.

We will fly the Maple Leaf tomorrow.

Watch parades and fireworks, eat BBQ, drink, repel bugs and catch some rays while wearing a maple leaf.

Whilst watching the 'football', try taking along a dictionary and giving it a read.

Going to Olympic Plaza to watch the fireworks, first time I get to do it because it's on a Friday this year! :thumbup:

And no doubt be subjected to non-stop coverage of their RHs over the weekend.
