Today I was going to take the kids to the torch relay at 9am but when I saw that the parking lot was filling up at the Langley Events Centre, 1.5 hours before the program, I decided to find a spot. Kai, Koen and I ran around for about an hour. Maria and the kids joined us.
They had fun stuff for the kids like flags and tambourines. The kids made it all the way until noon. We didn't quite make it for the torch's arrival but we got to be part of the festive atmosphere. My boys are movers. Big movers. It's tough on my own to keep my eye on both of them. Kai did sit in the stroller for half an hour with Bubbi which was nice because then I could just chase Koen. Koen cannot sit still or he will scream. Although, he did sit with auntie Maria for a good 20 minutes.
Kai loved the Lion mascot from whatever bank is sponsoring it. He went up behind him and pulled on his tail. Twice.
Have fun tonight!
