We went to the Canal.

We saw ducks. REALLY close up.

And went to Parliament! It was pretty.

Almost all of my photos of building feature sky, prominently.

Look at us, all Canadian and whatnot!

The Nature Museum. See? Sky.

No outfit in this post, so I’ll tell you what J is wearing:

Sunnies, Ray Ban, gift from me (we had a fight, and I felt bad. They came a month later, when we were no longer fighting.)
Tee, Tristan, from his mom
Jeans, Levis
Shoes, VANS, super electric green
Watch, G-Shock (his own)

Though you can’t see it, I wore a striped CK dress, and my Impanema sandals. I got many blisters, it was not cool.

Everyone was all “Why are you going to Ottawa? You know they have nothing” And you know what I say to those people? Haters. We had a great time! We went to the Nature museum and saw diosaurs, and they were awesome. There was also a Burtynsky exhibit on there, which really pleased J. It was amazing! I can’t believe how much detail he captures in a single photo.
We walked from there down Bank street and looked at a bunch of shops, and stopped for Coffee at bread and sons – no barista there after 1PM, so it was drip coffee, but it was very good. We ate at Zak’s diner, where they fed me a samwich on gluten-free bread! And we did not go to Zaphod’s, because we were too tired (old).

I wouldn’t be like “OMG go spend your two week holiday in Ottawa!” because yeah, you’d be bored, but for a day trip or even two days I think it was great. I’d really like to go back to see the other museums (everything closed at 5PM! theres not enough open hours of a day to see things in that time!), and I have folk to visit out there, so we’ll be making another trip, someday. It’s super close by!
