Greetings to all. Here I am in our nation's capital, Ottawa for the tulip festival. Dear husband's cousin phoned last week and invited me to stay with them. They live in the suburb of Stittsville which is about 20minutes from Parliament Buildings.
Today I ventured downtown and drove around to view the tulips and then parked the car and climbed Parliament hill and enjoyed the view of the river and the wonderful buildings. I just love the old stone the is used in all those buildings. I tried to get in to see the library but was too late today so I will try tomorrow.
When Little Sis and I were there 2yrs. ago the library was closed for renovations and now they are completed. In that library is the most fantastic statue of the young Queen Victoria which is situated in the middle of the room . The room is circular and for safety reasons the library can be closed off from the main building with fire doors, I am very curious as to the renovations and the overall appearance of the room.
Till next time...

I was hoping to see a pic of the tulips. Did you get to "sit" in the house? It is fun to recapture the wonderful time I had with you there
