We heard the news and grabbed the camera and headed over in time to see them filming some scenes with this beautiful elephant from the Bowmanville Zoo. We didn't find out her name, but she's 49 years old and was very lovely.
Evy was super impressed, with both the elephant and with the costumes worn by the actors.

Evy quite liked the dresses and the clowns

Not a sight you see every day

Pausing for a photos with a local fellow who is 93 -I thought he might need a heart pill after having his
head in the elephant's mouth!

Well, I'm pretty sure the afternoon is going to seem quite boring in comparison to our awesome morning! And poor Colin Mochrie was hanging around, having his photo taken and talking to a few people but we just ran on past to get to the elephant. I didn't even take a picture of him! He was totally upstaged by our large grey friend.
Tomorrow is the last day of filming, so we'll have to check it out again. Who knows what might be down the main street tomorrow?
