09:22 pm - celebrate! Happy British Columbia Day!
OK, so strictly speaking for British Columbians our day has yet to start, but why shouldn't our friends in the Motherland get a little celebration in now before it's too late?
I'm looking forward to our Lieutenant Governor's speech, having read what she had to say last year. I feel I should locate and ride on the West Coast Railway Association’s Mini Rail, as my bit to express civic pride in my adopted multicultural, historic, and lively land. And look, here's a picture of the train. And here's our Lieutenant Governor on the train. (She's the one with the hat.) And feast your eyes on some colourful if not very unruly multiculture.
Even though there are still two and a half hours to go before I can start my celebration, I already feel proud. Truly proud.
