... I've done too much of that lately. <br><br>And so, I'm not deciding until the morning when I'm ready to leave and since I just wrote an entry on faith I won't be planning my trip and will be just "winging" the stops. The people in my life will have to have faith as I'm not planning on updating my status until I get to Winnipeg sometime in the next 10 days. <br><br>So, for the next 10 or so days I'll be somewhere in North America. <br><br><br><br><br><br>

... to the members of the wedding party and follow wedding guests.<br><br>The reception took place under a tent right next to the 400 year old tree. The tent was beautifully decorated and as the night wore on the tent glowed with the help of the hundreds of votive candles scattered in decorative bags on the numerous guest tables. Everything was just right: from the food to the speeches to the people losing all self conciousness on the dance floor!

... growth. We saw all of the government buildings, which were constructed with a limestone façade. (I think&#8230;I&#8217;ll have to verify that with my façade experts at my office!) The architecture was amazing on these buildings. Located along the north side of the downtown area was the Rideau Canal, running between Kingston (Lake Ontario) and Ottawa. We learned that Kingston was ...

I didn't wake up till really late. Eduardo had already left, and we had to leave the keys inside and his house unlocked, I hope that was OK with him. <br><br>I went out to McCowan subway station and met Rosie, Owen and Vicky for the ride home. We had to wait around for a half ...

... shift at the Chamberfest, then drop my bicycle off for its yearly tuneup at Full Cycle, buy some dried fruit for trail mix and THEN finally pack my backpack. When you're camping, you need a lot more stuff than normal, and this time was no exception. I stuffed my bag with very few clothes, sleeping bag, pots, thermarest and a big honking four person tent that ...

... Bay. So we crossed the grounds of the War Museum and hit the bike path but from there we looked in both directions and could not see anything that could possibly be a Chase Point. After checking our clue sheet once again we decided to head westward down the bike path for a bit to see if we happened on anything of interest.

... Parliament building, known as the Centre Block, surrounded by a wonderful green (full of families, tourists, student and locals enjoying the space) dominated by the Peace Tower in the centre.
