this little universe between our backs
We skated again tonight. I kinda like the ease of it, since we're so close to the canal. We can hop on a bus with our skates in backpacks, get off after two quick stops, and walk from the University of Ottawa across the street to the canal. You can lace up near Somerset, skate the entire length of the
currently open section to Bank Street, stop to take quick photos, eat Beaver Tails (fried dough with sugar), make the entire trip back, get back into street shoes, and still catch a bus home on the same fare (the transfer expires after ninety minutes, I think). It's super-easy and a good way to get some winter exercise.
Look at me, all embracing winter in Ottawa this year!
