big girl pants, breakfast, bus, ByWard Market, Ottawa Day 5, SkipTheDishes, sleep-in, Technology, widow

had a lovely sleep in… my daughter made me breakfast… first sit down for our morning meal since I arrived, lol…

we played on our electronics, visited for a bit, and then took back the rental car…

forgot to take a photo of the whole car… took this one when we got it so we’d be able to recognize it in a parking lot…

jumped on a bus to downtown where we shopped for shoes and technology, and enjoyed wandering around the Rideau Centre which has lots of new shops since I was last here…

got a picture of us on the bus… strange that I’ve been here this long and this was our first bus trip…

this is my daughter’s usual mode of transportation…

I find it fun to travel on the bus with her… she is trying to convince me to take the bus to and from work at home, as I have just lost access to reasonable parking…

had a lovely lunch on the patio at Social in Byward Market… we were under the shade of this lovely tree…


tasty beet, nut and ricotta salad…

think I got a Pokemon we haven’t caught before… sent an email to my grandson, but haven’t heard back from him… just makes my girl laugh… she keeps sending pictures of me playing to my oldest grandson…  

also picked up this sparkly new phone case…

it will be an excellent reminder of my time in Ottawa…

back home on the bus, followed by a quiet restful time… ordered supper using SkiptheDishes… beef ribs from The Smoque Shack…

yummy, but a little spicy…

then we did a chocolate tasting… what fun… will write about that tomorrow;-)…

we went out for a late lunch to Cacao 70… it is a chocolate restaurant…

took a walk over the bridge to see water lilies and arrowheads… another beautiful day…
