<p style="text-align: left;">All in all, it was a good event with a good turn out.  There were two <a href="http://www.350.org/" target="_blank">350.org</a> walks organized in Olympia, and one attendee that I spoke with said there were about the same amount of people at the other walk as well.  (Hopefully not just the same people at both events!)</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">We were so fortunate to have nice weather for the first time in days.  A beautiful day to be marching!  I was glad to be able to participate in one of the 5,000+ Climate Actions around the world.</p>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">And Now, Some Pictures</h4>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="fish by OpenlyBalanced, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/openlybalanced/4047638848/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2540/4047638848_975458fa8c_m.jpg" alt="fish" width="187" height="240" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">There was a fish.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span id="more-449"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="bigfish by OpenlyBalanced, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/openlybalanced/4047639340/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3481/4047639340_a9daf862a1.jpg" alt="bigfish" width="500" height="333" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">A big fish!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="bannerlong by OpenlyBalanced, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/openlybalanced/4047639462/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2767/4047639462_55b5d9fa68.jpg" alt="bannerlong" width="500" height="189" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">And a long, beautiful banner.</p>
<p><a title="underwater by OpenlyBalanced, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/openlybalanced/4046896721/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2608/4046896721_c08f7b4b86.jpg" alt="underwater" width="320" height="484" /></a><a title="sign1 by OpenlyBalanced, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/openlybalanced/4047639044/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2492/4047639044_59d8737cd3.jpg" alt="sign1" width="320" height="484" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">We drew on the sidewalk and hung signs to show where we had been, and where the water would be.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="capitolfish by OpenlyBalanced, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/openlybalanced/4047639758/"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2786/4047639758_00a4ae2e02.jpg" alt="capitolfish" width="500" height="330" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">We marched with the fish below the capitol building.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="the_end by OpenlyBalanced, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/openlybalanced/4047639852/"><img class="alignnone" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3491/4047639852_7ecc1f3485.jpg" alt="the_end" width="500" height="309" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">And, at the end of the march, we were met by the band.  (They were with us throughout the march as well.)   There was music and dancing, a nice time was had by all.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">What did you do for International Climate Action Day?</p>
