The Queen in Halifax

As planned, Neil and I made it the Queen's address on Garrison Grounds today. While it was raining for the early part of the ceremony, things eventually cleared up a little.

Neil managed to catch the Queen's address, which I then included in this video.

While the ceremony was not particularly exciting (the Acadian music component was particularly tiring), it was largely made palatable by the fact that the classic Newfoundland celtic rock band Rawlins Cross performed a song. As an early investor in the band it was nice to see that they finally were able to perform for the Queen (and Prince Philip and Harper).

If I get a chance I may try to post a few more photos tomorrow.
