The road beckons

We're off on a 4 night getaway next Sunday,which should be fun.We're heading to Ottawa via Kingston and we'll be staying 3 nights at the Rideau River Provincial Park (30 mins or so south of Ottawa),then we're treating ourselves to a night at the Holiday Inn Kingston on the way home.
We plan to see the Changing of the Guard,and hope to get on one of the free tours to the Parliament buildings if we can,and visit a few of Ottawa's amazing museums including the Children's museum at the museum of Civilisation

Then it's off to Upper Canada Village to expose the kids to pioneer times -Andrew just studied that in Grade 3 and is fascinated(tho' I didn't appreciate being asked "Were the 1980's pioneer days ?" yesterday - cheeky young whippersnapper.

We also hope to take in Fort Henry in Kingston

It's all a bit educational but it's exposing them to living history,so we're looking forward to it.
Check back for a few pics once we're home.
