Ottawa, Canada Through My Eyes

All of you guessed Canada, and you were right! A few even got the city right!  We did indeed travel to Ottawa for 8 days.  We stayed with some friends there while we visited the capital building, saw Rideau Canal, ate at a wide range of restaurants from the place who claims to have the best burgers (there was like 85 choices) to Vietnamese Pho.  We even traveled to Gananoque and stayed at a Bed and Breakfast right on the Thousand Islands.

I'm always amazed at how God provides for the things we desire to do, and this trip was no exception.  We were able to fly to Ottawa using air miles (one of the ONLY benefits of 18 hour flights back and forth to Africa!) and our very hospitable friends were wonderful hosts!  I have over 500 hundred photos so I'm going to break this up into a few posts.  The other day you saw photos from the capital building and Rideau Canal.  Here's a few more of us out and about in Ottawa...

Looks lovely! I've been to many countries, but never Canada - we need to make a road trip up there sometime soon!
