My Mom is here! She came a few days ago which is nice because it gives us a few days before Connor arrives to show her the routine and explore the city a bit.
After a great morning in down town Ottawa exploring the ByWard Market and picking up some gorgeous fresh veg for the week, we spent the afternoon at Rideau Hall. The grounds are beautiful. We saw the changing of the guard, had a picnic, took a tour of the main house and waited on Royal baby news.
While we were there I was interviewed about my thoughts on the royal baby for a local Ottawa radio station. Steve told the interviewer he found the right girl for this particular subject. We will be listening to the station this evening in hopes of catching my few seconds of local fame. *wink* After a short interview we finished our walk through the rose gardens.
Rideau Hall is an excellent way to spend a free and fun day out in Ottawa. They have a children's parks, lot's of green space and free tours though the season of the various buildings on site. They have story time for children on Friday and Saturdays between 1-3 pm. Here is the link for more information on Rideau Hall activities. http://www.gg.ca/document.aspx?id=15023&lan=eng
We came home to find out that Will & Kate had a beautiful baby boy- Yay!!
