Ottawa Day 1

Today was pretty much a travel day. We arrived at the Regina Airport at 7:00 am and arrived in Ottawa at 6:00 pm (4:00 Regina time). Used an Uber for the first time. That worked out well. We went for a walk to find the bus stop that would take us to the Via Rail station. After that Ger figured out how much an Uber would cost. Turns out it costs about $5 more for an Uber than the bus, and then we don't have to walk around Ottawa with our luggage. We might be Uber people now. Time for sleep so we can get to the train station in the morning. Looking forward to that.
New entry: I didn't take this picture but thought I would add this particular picture of the Russian Embassy. It was about 2 blocks from our B&B and we saw it on our evening walk. Lots of Free Ukraine signs on the street poles. Looks like these may have been installed by the city (I'm just guessing). If you zoom in on the picture you can see the barbed wire at the top of the fence. Not a very welcoming place. However the the restaurant for the Ottawa Culinary Institute looked like it would be interesting. That was pretty much kitty corner from our place.Leggi altro
