San Juan del Sur is full of Canadians. A few Canadian own bars, a Canadian owns the bilingual weekly newsletter called Del Sur, Canadians own the new gym and yoga centre, some Canadian tend bar, while others sell real estate. One Canadian is the go to girl for the nicest hair cuts in the village. Given the critical mass of Canadians in this little beach town, it is no surprise that Canada Day is celebrated in a significant way.
For the second year in a row, most of the Canadians gathered at the sports park to take part in a massive road hockey game. Those Canadians that did not play provided support from the sidelines. And like last year it was a memorable day.
Over the past 12 months, on trips home to Canada, Canadians have been bringing back road hockey equipment in their luggage. The inaugural 2008 Canada Day game saw the goalie wearing cookie sheets as leg pads. This year both goalies were fully equipped.
