THE BIG WINNIPEG BEACH WEEKEND

 
Yesterday was a Big day in Winnipeg Beach.  It started off with the arrival of our guests Brad and Bonnie and our Daughter Elizabeth, who thankfully arrived in time to help me put the finishing touches on our decorating of the boat for the contest.  I was quite pleased with the results.   
 
 
There were a number of other boats around us that decorated as well.  This is "Odyssey", all decked out in the colours that the beach chose for the celebration. 
 
 
"Solitude VI", with beach colours and antique replicas of the water tower, a train car, and a fire truck. 
 
 
Then we have "Endlessun". Who also went with a troplical theme.   
  
And Jeff's dog Finn stole the show in her grass skirt. 
 
Sharon decked "Loafhaven"out in a Birthday theme that was very festive. 
 
We found crew that must have come from a Pirate Ship, that I haven't seen yet.   I hope I can find it before they take down their decorations. 
 
There were a number of decorated boats that I still don't have pictures of, that I am hoping to get around to seeing today. 
It was a very relaxing afternoon of partying. 
 

Then last night we cruised on out of the harbour and found it was quite rough.  Even though it was a little too rough for us to go out to watch the fireworks Dan did turn the lights on. 

I love the look, It really did look quite pretty. 
 
Well the parade was cancelled and I don't know if they are going to reschedule it for today, or if other people still left their decorations up.  But Dan took all ours down, but we will save them for maybe another time. 
 
 
 
 
IT WAS FUN
