Every year around the 4th of July, thousands of American (mainly) Irish Dancers congregate in the predetermined spot of the North American National Championship. During this week long competition, dreams will be fulfilled, friendships will be formed, and lots of cute outfits will be worn! This year the spot for this beloved celebration was held in Montreal, Canada. Instead of giving you a rundown on my whole week, i'll break it down into 4 separate posts. The first day we arrived in Montreal, it was the Canadian Independence day, only 2 days before America's! My family and I made the trek down to the boardwalk to participate in the festivities. Luckily, I had brought my Killin It crop top (Brandy Melville), my red, scalloped high-waisted shorts, and my converse (Byay for red and white) with me so I was able to look like I somewhat belonged. My sister, on the other hand, was off her game.

After a day of exploring, I decided a loved old Montreal. It felt like I was in a European country despite being only a few hours away from the American border. I had a great time pretending to be Canadian fro the day! The day ended in nerves, though since I would be taking the national stage for the first time in 8 hours but we'll save that for a different blog post.
au revoir,
Deirdre
