Move day
Today we packed up and moved to Fitzroy Provincial Park located on the shores of the Ottawa River just east of Arnprior. We are just waiting for Kimberley to arrive and for the big celebration on the...
June 2004
Almost the end of June :(
We had a wonderful visit with Julia, she fed us a great lunch, gave us access to her internet connection and sent us home with all sorts of goodies. Many, many thanks Julia! Don't forget the invitation...
Ottawa, Capital of Canada
There was a major thunderstorm last night and we were rewarded with a free light and sound show. Be that as it may, we have Ottawa firmly in our sights today and we are off to do a download, find the...
Bon Echo Park to Rideau River Park
We are somewhat reluctant to leave Bon Echo, but after an evening of pouring over guide books and maps we have decided to move a little closer to Ottawa and into an area with a few more tourist options...

We are off to visit the Royal Botanical Gardens today. They are located in Hamilton and so it should be easy from here. Of course we manage to get turned around trying to get out of Kitchener, but it...
