I participated in my first Canada Day Float! It was so much fun!      :cheer:             Friends of mine and I from the Life Donation Awareness Group, sat on the float! We had a blast!        :thumbup;         

Here's a photo from the parade, I might add more as I get more eventually!          :2thumbsup;   

I'm sitting near Justin Bieber      ;D

It's the largest parade in all of Canada, possibly even the world, there are over 70 floats!
