Ottawa

We finally got out of crazy Toronto!!!! Busy! Busy! Busy! Set the GPS and headed for Ottawa. That's more my speed. Went to Parliament Hill and enjoyed a tour of the main building. We saw the House of Commons and the Senate. Learned that I would qualify for Senate appointment, I said hmmmmm and Cassie said "MOM at least finish school first so you're not so crazy busy". I think it was because she was afraid she might have to do her own laundry then lol. I had my picture taken in front of the Supreme Court of Canada where my court case was finally finished. It was actually a pretty neat feeling to stand there, of course with a big smile on my face:). Parliament Hill area is very beautiful, I think I would enjoy being a regular there! We left there and decided to stop for the night in Cornwall. Interestingly enough the city is surrounded by fields of corn. Today we are headed to Quebec City. We heard from some friends that if we park in Levis we can take a ferry over to the old district so that's our plan. Of course there is a pretty wicked thunderstorm going on right now in Cornwall so we'll see how the weather is by the time we get there. We are all a little nervous about being in the French area when none of us speak French. Even though both the kids took French in school. I asked Justin what he remembered and he said "bonjour and Au revoir" I thought "great I even remember more than that from Sesame Street". So guess we'll see how it goes lol.
