The Queen!!

HAPPY CANADA DAY!!!!

Went to parliament hill this morning and had a great spot to watch the raising of the flag, changing of the guard, and musical ride. After this they opened up the section of the lawn that had been blocked off for it and everyone made a mad dash across it to get a good spot close to the stage for the show at noon. We sprinted and get a section right against the barriers. Unfortunately there was a huge camera in front of us, then miraculously it was moved and we have a perfect view of the stage. Look how close we were!!
As the most exciting thing, The Queen came and sat on the stage for the entire time (in that little blue area right above my head in the above picture.) She even gave a little speech!!
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
