I just got back from 4 days in Ottawa. Although I was mostly there to help a friend get her parents ready to move into a seniors' home, we did do some fun stuff. The Art Gallery is always lovely (and we actually saw the Van Gogh exhibit, so that was awesome. There is a lovely restaurant just north of Dow Lake on the Canal... something "Ritz" I think, and it was amazing. The Byward market is always worth the trip, and the Museum of Civilization and Man is never boring either. I love Ottawa! I try to get there once a year anyway.

Children are great imitators.
So give them something great to imitate.
