Ottawa

I arrived here Wednesday around noon.Yvonne thought it a good idea to show me a bit of Ottawa before going to their place. I am very, very impressed with the city. It is actually more beautiful than I thought.

Thursday we did some more site seeing. I saw some of the important places, such as the Parliament Hill, Sussex Drive. The out door-market and all the out-door places to eat. We bought fresh Vegetables, then of course we had to carry it all to the car, which was parked quite a ways away. Reminded me of Holland when I as a teenager had to walk all the way to the market to buy things for the family.
Then we also did some serious shopping in the Mall and Yvonne insisted I kept my wallet closed, which for me is a difficult thing to do. She told me that is was "payback time". We were in a place where they were selling out all kinds of jewelery and belts. If you know me you also know that I love belts, you can never have too many. We were pretty tired when we came home.

Friday we met Aila's teacher at school. I also had a chance to see Anneka's classroom. Afterwards we Yvonne, Aila and I had lunch at, surprise!!!!! McDonald's at Walmart.

Today Anneka said: "Oma we have not had our Oma time yet at WalMart!" Mommie was not allowed to come along. She figured, I can wrap Oma around my little finger in the toys department and Mommie might just spoil the fun, hahaha!
So that is what we did this afternoon.
