My Third Weeend in Canada
That weekend, was not as exciting as others. My collegues went to Office on Saturday, and so it was a bore long day at home, i got up late on Sat, had a nice tub bath and had a supple brunch. Went to Govind's house, since his wife too was alone, and then it was a bore day. Later in the evening after everyone came back, we decided to go to Dow's lake, in Carlington, in Ottawa. After reaching there, it was already dark, and we took the local train for the first time, in Canada.
The lake looked very good, and we went for padding boat in 2 boats. And i peddled a lot, after so long. It was nice excercise after very long. We didnt have much time, so we went for just 40min of boating and came back. They made us wear, those life jackets which were too heavy to wear, but i wore for the sake of safety as i dont know swimming :-)
Well we came back, couldnt have patience to cook, so went to an Indian restaurant and had a nice vegetable biriyani after long with paneer curry and mixed veg.
On Sunday, we wanted to start early to shopping, but as always it got late and we started by 2:30pm after taking our nice go0d, and heavy lunch. After that we went to downtown for some shopping for myself and for Shanta, for her winter apparels. And our dear friend, wanted the best from the sale and finally we spend the rest 3hrs till the shop closing time i.e. 6pm in one single shop only. Anyways, after that since we had an invitation from a friend for his marriage party, we remembered late of a gift idea, and got disppointed as all the shops got closed by that time. Still some way, we thought of giving a photo album, with their photo, and ended up into the search of a photo shop with instant photo facility from the digicam. And that was the day of long long walk of abt 4km or more, and lots of searching, since it was Sunday, all the busses were also rare and etc etc etc. Finally found the correct shop and returned back with the photo successfully.
It was a good experience of long walk - not deliberate- but to gift Govind & his wife with surprise and yes, we all succeded in giving him a surprise.
