Ottawa in Winter

This is the second weekend of our Annual Winter Carnivale ''Winterlude''

The ice on the canal is said to be like a mirror, perfect for skating, a friend came to dinner last night and skated from Dow's lake to our home a distance of 5 Km. He said that the ice was the best he had ever seen in many years.

People commute in winter to work using the Canal as in this photo and the same at night going home.
Its free so why not enjoy it while it last.

Morning commute to work taken from the Corktown bridge looking East and South.

A dramatic photo of the Parliament buildings and the Locks of the Canal near the Chateau Laurier and the Ottawa river. Afternoon photo around 2:45pm.
