1.7 is Canada's birthday, which is celebrated as the Canada Day. My Canada Day consisted of a parade in Sackville, that took about an hour, and consisted of nice old cars, bagpipes and people giving out candies. I never got any candy, but a good-old fashioned freezie did come to my way and let me tell you, after sitting an hour in the hot sun it was very much appreciated.
Paraatin lisäksi kävimme pyörähtämässä Sidney Crosbyn kotipaikkakunnalla, ja ajoimme Lawrencetownin hiekkarannalle, joka on suosittu surffauspaikka, ja aika komea, pitkä hiekkaranta melko suurine aaltoineen olikin kyseessä. Seisoin ensin vedessä, joka hädin tuskin peitti jalkapöytäni, ja seuraava aalto nostattikin vedenpinnan puoleenväliin pohkeita.
In addition to the parade we went for a little ride to Sidney Crosby's hometown, and drove to the Lawrencetown beach, which is a popular spot to surf. The beach was a nice and long, and had quite high waves, as I was standing in the water while it barely even covered my feet, and the next wave brought the water level half way up my calves.
Kuvaajaa kiinnostivat kivet enemmän kuin koko rannasta kuvan ottaminen - The photographer was more interested in the rocks than taking a picture of the whole beach
In the evening we went to see the fireworks in Halifax, on the opposite side of the city on the Dartmouth side. We figured there would be less people on that side than in the Halifax waterfront, as the fireworks were shot from a barge in the bay.
Operaation auringonlaskunmetsästys suoritettu - Mission Hunting The Sunset accomplished
Tässä kohtaa kuvaaja saattoi kirota järjestelmäkameransa käytön vähyyttä, ja täydellistä unohdusta miten se yökuvaus toimikaan ja millä asetuksilla ilotulituksista saikaan parhaat otokset - At this point the photographer was cursing not having used the camera during the night in the longest time, and having no memory of which settings work the best with fireworks
Noniin, pikkuhiljaa löytyi toimivat asetukset - finally started finding the right settings
