Back to our long trip along New England and Canada last October, now it´s time for Ottawa.
We spent there the evening and night of Oct 7th and the morning of Oct 8th, when we take all these pictures around the Parliament and the Byward Market. We enjoyed a very sunny and pleasant morning in Ottawa. Although this was my third time there, I would like to go back soon, because I think Ottawa is a very pretty city and it has very much to see and offer.
I hope you enjoy.
