Hubby and I are heading to Kingston for a day soon, too. We love it there! <br /><br />Rachel, your mom would love the Farm...the ornamental gardens are gorgeous, the greenhouses are HUGE, and the arboretum is the loveliest place for a walk and a picnic. And I highly recommend Rideau Hall, too...just discovered that one myself after living here for 26 years! :)Linda Poitevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00578032216595063037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825931548219116513.post-22542395093319278562012-07-29T18:16:07.793-04:002012-07-29T18:16:07.793-04:00So, I&#39;ve been to Ottawa a few times - my famil...So, I&#39;ve been to Ottawa a few times - my family used to go on March breaks and my dad and brother would go see an Ottawa Senators hockey game while us girls shopped - but I&#39;ve never visited the sites... and I really want to, especially after reading this list! I&#39;d love to visit Rideau Hall and Parliament as I have an interest in politics. I&#39;ve never heard of the Experimental Farm, but it sounds cool! I should take my mom one day, she loves gardening :)Rachelia (Bookish Comforts)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01145140303960949029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825931548219116513.post-88390658894268690882012-07-27T20:40:26.733-04:002012-07-27T20:40:26.733-04:00I think I need to make a trip to Ottawa and check ...I think I need to make a trip to Ottawa and check out a few of the places on this list. I don&#39;t live too far, so perhaps a day trip in the near future.<br /><br />Thanks Linda for the great list and the chance to win a signed copy of your second book! :)Chrystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17960209705110683101noreply@blogger.com
