here is a video clip of our early outings on Queen's Day

you can also see other people's QD videos - there are a slew on youtube for your watching pleasure.
we did have another unusual thing happen that day - for the most part this houseboat moves very little - every now and then you get a swift moving boat that causes too much wake and the house rocks every so slightly. well, on QD there was a boat moving WAY too fast which caused a tsunami-like effect on our block, making all the houseboats rock violently. it caused one of the rings mounted on our house that we tie our little boat to to be ripped out, sending the back end of the boat drifing into boat traffic. the poor people across the canal, sitting out on their terrace and boat enjoying some food, were drenched by this wave. all i could think about was the nasty canal water in their faces and food. yuck.

this is not my video, but it's a good one of QD and the crowds. i am pretty sure that the place they show in the first minute of the video is the park where the kid's sale was (which only went until 2 pm and then was turned over to the adults)
