Trip to Canada. Day three. ( Continued )

Our with N. trip to Canada. Easter school vacation, 2006 год.
Beginning of the trip is in here --->. (In the beginning there was Lake Champlain and the chocolate factory )


Queen of England is still the head of state


Very beautiful ceiling


Here it is - the Canada's Senate. It is beautiful. Photographs fail to convey the beauty, especially the ones that are taken by my humble point and shoot.


Real gold on the ceiling


Pictures on the walls tale tales about bloody moments of the Canadian's history to constantly remind Senators about folks that gave their lives for the country


N. it the Senate


The tables in here are quite humble as well


The golden ceiling once more


Farewell Senate we've got to move on.


We go to some chineses at the corner to buy a snack. N. is laughing at my total helplessness with the Canadian’s coins, I am just stretching out a pile of change in my palm for the shop assistant to help herself with it.


Decided to walk the Parliament around


Museum of Civilization that Mary has recommended to visit. Not going to happen, because our legs are too tired, we feel the muscles ache.


Unidentified church


Library of Parliament


There are a lot of memorials around the Parliament


Tired of walking


Getting a rest at the fountain


N. wishes she could reach for a coin, which are abundant in the fountain


Ottawa is beautiful. Decided to continue our journey on the wheels from now on. We "unseal" our enchanted underground parking garage. Still not a single soul. We get out from there on the free open. I entrust my camera to N. with my permission to open the car's window. We are going to wheel the Ottawa all over.


We slip through tight obscured streets. (The picture was taken by N.)


Here is our goal. Dwelling of Governor General of Canada. Is it?


This picture also goes to the credit of N. ... One day we met a Canadian lady, who highly suggested to come to visit Ottawa in May to see the tulip festival. There was a story coming along with that, about the Queen of Holland, who once visited Ottawa and was so much happy about the warm Canadian welcome that she had received, that she swore to strew Ottawa with tulips every May as a sign of her enormous gratitude to the good people of Canada.


That is all. Farewell Ottawa. It is time for us to go back to Montreal.



Next, we spelt over in Montreal and the next morning we went back to our sweet home.

Could have we possibly missed the chocolate factory on our way back? You bet not!

... So again we are at our chocolate tour. And again we are full with chocolate to our gills.

Burlington. What a nice town it is!

The end. Konets.
