We left to go for a walk in the park, dad, Khadija, Trudy and I. But the roads and bridges were closed for the full and half marathons. Yet, they have plenty of parks in Ottawa, so there were many possibilities, and we gradually made our way to Andrew Haydon Park on the Ottawa River.
There were sailboats moored in the harbor at Nepean Sailing Club on Lac Deschênes.
There were lagoons surrounded by deep green lawns and trees and pink blooming Crabapples
which Crabapples we don’t get to enjoy very often, so we did.
There were Canada geese, parents and goslings in a row.
And finally, oh look. There across the lagoon: the kindly hosts that brung us!
