Well, after a week of heat and humidity, the temperature is hovering around 15 degrees and I like it. I like it a lot. So as I a result, I'm sharing with you guys a nice "indoor" picture today.



Today's picture is from inside the Peace Tower (yes, my friends, you can go in it!). At the base of the tower, there is the Memorial Chamber, which is dedicated to the men and women who loss their lives defending our country in countless wars. It's a room rich in symbolism, but I'll let you check that out for yourself.

Overall, it's a quiet, respectful room, filled with dignity for those who have died so that we can be free.

Here we are, the first photo of the new blog! And what better way to start than with a picture of Parliament.

It was a beautiful day here in Ottawa, approximately 20 degrees. Hence, a beautiful spring shot.

This was taken in Major Hill Park, which is just across the canal from the Hill. I loved how the trees are framing the Peace Tower, making it a beautiful spring-y shot.
