Estonian Independence Day





I had heard that there is an event on every 24th of February in Toronto Town Hall. It seemed a little hard for me to believe, as Estonia is such a small country and there are not so many Estonians in Toronto...but seeing is believing, right? So I made it there myself. I was glad to see that it was really happening. Young and old had gathered with little Estonian flags and wearing the sorority caps were singing Estonian anthem together. Wow. Wow. 

A little side remark, it was a terrible day. Sleet wasn't definitely in my plans when I was cycling to there and then had to attend in an exhibition meeting of "Am I Estonian". I was soaked when I got there and then I had more to cycle. Yucky. I was completely wet!!!
