Friday is Canada Day! I know in previous years, I've had all day Canadian food in the food court. This Friday, I'd like to do something different by recreating Prince Albert National Park in that virtual reality classroom. It's a beautiful place. If there's enough room in the classroom, there's golfing, hiking, bike riding, horseback riding, so many things to do. There's wildlife to see too. Bison, eagles, osprey, white pelicans, beavers, elk, bears, moose. We can watch the northern lights at the end of the day. If people do somehow get bored, we can recreate other Canadian places too.

I'll bring a picnic lunch and dinner, including Saskatoon-style berry pie for dessert.

Everyone is welcome.

This would mean using the virtual reality classroom all day. Does anyone mind?

	I do not mind, please use it as you will, Lacey. Set it to how you would enjoy. I will be joining on the festivities, is there anything specific I should where or bring? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Wear comfortable clothes and good shoes. Wearing red and white is traditional, but not required. Bring a swimsuit if you want to swim in the lake. I'd say bring things like frisbees, but the virtual reality can make them for us, can't it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Red and white, it is, then! I can transform myself into a bathing suit if needed. Though, my body and water don't mix well. Yes, it will be able to make Frisbee. The only thing it can not reproduce is food. Haha. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh gosh, swimming is only for the people who want/like to swim. You don't have to. I've got that covered. Though I could use help getting the food to the classroom. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I haven't heard of Canada yet. It sounds very exciting. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Gosh, that's right. Canada wasn't a country in your time. In my time, it's the second biggest country in the world by land mass. You and your dad should definitely come on Friday. It'll be fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That is awesome. Will you show me on a globe or a map? We definitely will! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Here's a map. I can show you on a globe in person. Attached map I was born and grew up in Toronto and then I moved to Saskatchewan. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wow! It's huge, and it is kind of near home as well! That's super, thanks for showing me. I'm excited to see it. (Reply to this) (Parent)
