Ottaway, day one

Woke up this morn­ing feel­ing fine…except for the freak­ing time (5am).
Cab arrived at 6.
Air­port by 6:40.
Jump through 2 dif­fer­ent Air Canada checkin desks to get things arranged…nice lady at the help desk man­aged to:

• get us sit­ting together
• get us the extra legroom of an exit row…nice lady!

Flight was unevent­ful.
Grab Rental car.
Load car, turn on GPS and flaw­lessly nav­ig­ate to the hotel. Nice toy!

Since we’re here early…the Parks Canada/Geocaching work­shop doesn’t start until Fri­day, Tess and I decided to get a great start on the tour­ist thing.

We went to the Par­lia­ment grounds and took pictures…but not before walk­ing the sur­round­ing neigh­bour­hood of the hotel, find­ing an awe­some eat­ery, and down­ing a great meal.

…and that’s pretty much it. Was techie chal­lenged get­ting the wire­less work­ing in our room, but once that was set, we were golden.
