Happy Birthday Canada!


We feel so lucky to be able to celebrate our nation’s birthday today!  We are in the Western-most capital city of the country – Victoria –  and they certainly put on a great party!

We have now been travelling for the year….and although there are many beautiful and fabulous countries to visit….there is no place like Canada!

We are very lucky to call this country our home!  Happy 148 Canada !

      Hi Ravi and Anju!

      We hope you are doing well! We think about you so often!!
      In fact, while we were watching the fireworks last night, we both said how the lit up legislature buildings reminded us of the President’s place in New Delhi on Republic day!

      I have a long email almost ready to send you….we have been going at such a fast pace…I have been remiss in keeping in touch. You will hear from us soon!

      Warmly,
      Kat

    How nice you were home on Canada day…that was a great idea to plan that in before your trip to Alaska.

      Hi Harriet,

      Uh yeah…it was all part of our master plan….actually not true at all! We are in Victoria because while in Alaska, I was able to apply for a housesitting spot – and we got it! Surprise! So here we are in Victoria and just loving Vancouver Island – absolutely gorgeous out here. Our blog will take you through our time in Alaska >>Vancouver>>Whistler and then to Victoria. I just couldn’t resist posting the Canada Day post – it just made us feel so happy:)

      Cheers,
      Kat:)

  3. So happy to hear that you are back on Canadian soil…. And on Canada Day! So cool! You all look very patriotic.

      Hi Herta,

      We are glad we were here to celebrate….according to our original plans – we were going to be in California by now…but that’s all changed. Glad to be in Canada – it was very special:) And we felt very patriotic…a few tears were shed when we all sang the anthem.

      Cheers,
      Kat:)

  4. Hi Kat,
    I’m glad that you were able to celebrate Canada Day here in Canada. I must say that the legislature Building looks magnificent! Love, Mom

  5. Hi, Katina and the Gang, even though it’s two weeks past Canada Day I so enjoyed your photos, the fireworks are amazing and such a great photo of the legislature building, but best of all to see your smiling faces. Lots of hugs to all
