And the sad news is... I didn't get to see the library cuz a press conference was being held just outside the library however there would be access to the library at 3:oo pm following the conference but I would be long gone.

So I ventured up to the peace tower and since it was 11:00am I got to watch the Page Turning in the Chapel. There are several large books on which is written the names of Canadian Vets from all wars and each day at 11:ooam the pages are turned. Little Sis and I were invited into the chapel on our visit 2yrs ago to watch the short ceremony as the page was turned and Dear Husband's uncle Jack's name could be viewed. He died in France in 1944.
Following that I ventured down the the rotunda and sat a while watching the dignitaries arrive for the press conference then I was off the the car and back to Stittsville to get ready for the cousins to return cuz we were going to view the tulips and have dinner at a restaurant down near the canal.

I hope you enjoy the pix of the tulips as much as I did!

Our dinner was wonderful and the entire visit with the cousins will remain the highlight of my memory for some time.

Till next time...
