Tall Ship Festival

Last weekend I went to Brockville, Ont. to see the Tall Ships Festival, with a tribute to the War of 1812.  Brockville was named after Major-General Isaac Brock, a hero of the War of 1812.  The town was invaded  by US soldiers in February 1813, so the town has a strong connection to that war.

Here are some photos from the festival.
