Ottawa with the Burns






This past weekend Steve and I took a mini-break to visit family friends in Ottawa. Once of my dad's oldest and best friends lives there and they invited down for the weekend to show us some of Ottawa's sites.


Because any form of cold is a big deal in my family - a cold around Christmas is liable to result in expulsion from Christmas events -we initially called and cancelled the trip. However, the Burns do not share the same paranoia for germs and as such welcomed us and our germs into their home.

On Saturday we skating on the Rideau Canal with Bruce and Andrew, ate beaver tails, toured the major architectural sites and then enjoyed a great dinner at their house.


On Sunday we ate pancakes covered in hot maple syrup and then wandered the National Art Gallery. These are a couple of pictures from our trip.
