Canada Day is coming up, so obviously this week’s theme is a tribute to my beautiful country. Below is a small selection of photos that appealed to me. There is so much more to this great land, and I would have loved to show it off with additional images, but it would take dozens of posts to reflect all the wonderful things about this nation from one end to the other. And I’m sure you all have better things to do than to hang around here all day.
So, here are a few images that I hope will give you all a glimpse of how beautiful Canada really is...
