Sunday, Dec18, 2011  Festival Del Mar is in full swing from Dec 16-22 and all the excitement is around being fit. Huge competitions in tennis, beach volleyball, running, swimming, soccer, paintball. Food is fabulous!!

This may be my last post before the new year as we are off to PV to pick up some special people and celebrate Christmas week, partly in PV and partly here so busy and fun times over the next ten days.

We danced to these guys Thurs night. Fabulous!

Parade on Fri. We have heard these guys practise every morning at 6 am since we got here six weeks ago!

School groups were represented

Love that Canadian flag!!

Such little girls with the flags and their horses go into full dance mode

One foot is out of step!

No sea fest is complete without the pirates

Not too sure if the tires will make the 2 hour parade route!
