Canada Day

It's Canada's 140th Birfday today!!!


Mum put maple leaf bandannas on me and STINKY and took us to Canada Place, located in downtown Vancouver.


This is where most of the celebration took place,


There were a lot of people,


And a lot of noises..... (we were both a little startled here, STINKY, of course was more startled than me!)


People sang Happy Birfday to Canada!!

Then we walked around Canada Place, and of course, people just LOVED us.


A couple of hooman pups thought we were the Firehouse Dogs!


(The dog in the movie is actually an Irish Terrier which is very similar looking to an Airedale Terrier other than it is a bit smaller in size and has no black saddle, just reddish tan all over.)

Actually, I should say, a couple of hooman pups thought STINKY was the Firehouse Dog. They asked to pet "him", but because of his land-sharking (mum: Jaffa can still be quite mouthy), mum told them they should pet me instead (I feel soooo USED!!).

And guess WHAT the boy hooman pup said......

He said,

He looks like a toy, I want to pet the Firehouse Dog!

Now, the first "he" was meant for me. Apparently I was too toy-ish for him to pet! He thought STINKY was the real Firehouse Dog... GEEEEZUS! (mum: I think because Jaffa has a very wiry coat, he looked more like the Irish Terrier in Firehouse Dog. Sunshade is my fluffy, sheep coated girl!!) What's worse is that he did end up petting ME because STINKY slobbered all over him when he tried to pet him.

HMMMMPH!

Anyway, we came to a fountain and took a break there to have a drink.


Even tho it was overcasting, our dense coat (wiry or sheep coated!!) made us very hot. Mum brought water for us, cause she said we couldn't drink the yucky fountain water!


Me and MY mummy!!!


We circled back to Canada Place to watch the celebration some more,


And I, the CutieDALE...


Worked my SuperDALE magic yet again,


And became the chick magnet amongst tourists!!


Then we made our way towards Coal Harbour and came to another water fountain. Mum had to have pictures taken again of course, and STINKY was not cooperating of course. I'm the perfect one you know, always so perfect! (mum: *not saying a word*)


This was me walking down the see-through ramp at Coal Harbour. STINKY was afraid, but when he saw me walking down, he followed me. I'm the brave one you know, always so brave!!


Before going home, I did some zen-ing to recharge my Aire-ZEN!!
