I took a little tour through St. Boniface, the Forks, and parts of the downtown area today on July 1st 2008, and caught some great happenings and great people celebrating Canada day.
I thought I'd share.
This is a Local French artistdoing some chalk art at the foot of the Provencher walking bridge...
Here's one of the many river taxis speeding along the Red...
Then I headed down Provencher Blvd a ways, and from my moutain bike I spotted another local artist taking advantage of the nice weather. He was painting the old St. B. city hall building from a rather strategic vantage point in front of the post office....
On turning back a few blocks down Provencher, the ride back proved interesting and I caught this character heading towards the Forks to entertain the kiddies....
He had to have been roasting in that suit!
I rode back over the Provencher bridge, then swung around underneath it, and proceeded to head through the Forks.
A lot was going on there as you will soon see...
