Fun abounds with the Snowbirds, Echo Beach and ole in London

One-Tank Trip for May 25/13

Warm-weather fun takes to the skies over Niagara and Waterloo Region while they’ll be hitting the beach in Toronto and its fiesta time in London.

Look, up in the sky

Canadian Forces Snowbirds

The Canadian Forces Snowbirds are roaring back to present a new season of aerial teamwork and discipline.

In a first of its kind, the Snowbirds will perform a 25-minute, non-aerobatic show over Niagara Falls on May 29 at 6 p.m.

Then, they roar off to dazzle the crowds on June 1 and 2 at the Waterloo Air Show in Breslau, just west of Kitchener.

They’ll be joined by wing-walking Jane Wicker, the Smoke-N-Thunder Jet Car and Disney’s Dusty at the Region of Waterloo International Airport.

The Snowbirds will be accompanied by the Canadian Forces’ CF-18 Demonstration jet in a show that publicist Diana Spremo said will be bigger and better than ever.

“There are new acts, a bigger static display, Food Truck Alley and the inclusion of the Canadian Aviation Expo, Canada’s premier aviation expo and trade show,” she said.

American Jane Wicker will demonstrate the daring art of wing walking with no safety line or parachute.

On the wing of a vintage biplane, Wicker climbs, walks and hangs all over the Boeing Stearman as it soars through the sky.

Dusty, the star of Disney's new 3-D animated comedy movie Planes, will be making his only Canadian appearance.

their mother. If the mother gives birth to two cubs she will only look after one of them. When two cubs are

born in captivity keepers will help raise both cubs using a method called "twin swapping". One baby is left

with the mother and the keepers switch the twins every few days so each one gets care and milk directly

from the mother. Now that's teamwork!
