The Best Day So Far!

Today we planned to go to Peter and Paul Fortress to hear the cannon fire at 12 and to take some more pictures. Instead! There was a Military presentation going on! WOW! It totally filled me with pride and patriotism! I'm so glad I'm Russian! I was able to take some videos and after the trials of learning to use iMovie to take off 2 minutes so I could upload it, I can share them with you!

Part Two

Then we continued walking, we walked by the artillery museum! Also amazing!!!

"Look! It's a pretty cannon!" ~ Mom 

Yes… very pretty cannons…

"Cannons can't be pretty, that's just wrong." ~ Lucy

I don't know what you think of all this.. But I think it's pretty awesome… there's so much history, right in the yard where we were walking! Canada has NOTHING like this… It's incredible to see. I love learning about it all! So many horrible and corrupt things happened, but it results in so much history that the later generations can learn about. I love it!!! Today was the best day so far because, well, we saw so much, experienced so much and I found a new appreciation for my heritage.
