Day 1763

Friday, June 6th
We went into town to experience the National Day excitement. We went to the food/restaurant festival but there were so many people and the lines were so long that we gave up buying food there. Alexander and his balloon friend. For some reason they had the trash cans covered in plastic (they had other trash cans available but I didn't see those at first). On the way home there was a bride to be dressed in pink who was on a mission to hug everyone on the subway platform.
