So this weekend was my first visit to Ottawa. I left friday, at around 7:00 AM on a train, and I arrived in Ottawa around 2:30 PM. The train ride wasn’t too bad, I was just really anxious the entire time… ha ha. Anyway, I met up with Natasha once she had finished class, and then we went and hung out and watched a movie, went to the grocery store, and just generally had a good time. Saturday we decided that we should go out for our first actual date, and we went to this place called “The Green Door” which was excellent, it is a cafeteria style restaurant focusing on vegetarian and organic foods. Pretty much you grabbed a tray, a plate and filled it up with food, and then for pricing they just weighed it and based on the weight determines what the price of the meal. It is a pretty awesome idea, and the food was excellent, and the dessert, oh man, it was superb. :). Then that leads us to today. Although today is the day that I left, we hadn’t done any sight seeing, and so we went to the Canadian Parliament and took some pictures of the buildings, quite a few, and Natasha kinda looked at me and said “You’re going to waste all of your film”… I was using a digital camera… *sigh* :p. All in all it was a really good weekend, and I am definitely glad that I went. I can’t wait to see Natasha again, which is in three weeks, and I also can’t wait to go see Ottawa again. Especially during the winter, will be great fun! I will add a link to photo’s when I get home, and have a chance.
