<p class="MsoNormal">HI Everyone,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It is a lovely display just to the right of the rotunda at City Hall. Good opportunity to see the display and stop and have a coffee/tea at Williams or one of the many small independent cafe’s popping up in Kitchener. A couple on Ontario
St. just a short walk from City Hall.</p>
