My favourite view of Ottawa in the winter. The world's largest skating rink, I was there today and had a lovely skate. 

Aha! The view, it only took a couple of tries to get this picture up here.... 

The Wild West

I just got back from the fine province of Alberta today and wanted to share the view from my hotel room. And the Mandarin word of the day is duoxie (many thanks), a sentiment that I would like to express to Passport Canada, as my new passport was waiting for me when I got back to Ottawa today.
