If you have access to a car, there are lots of pretty drives to go down in Ottawa. Riverside, for example.

A swing by the parliament buildings is worth it. They have tours with various degrees of cheese.

See if there is a musical ride schedualed. Probably not.

There is some pretty parkland around the experimental farm.

Possibly you could either go out on the town in the market, or get tickets to something at the NAC.

There are IMAX and OmniMax screens in town. OmniMax is the 180 degree full frontal immersion thing.

Ottawa has a pedestrian mall down the center of downtown, in addition to the byward market itself. Lots of touristy shops in both.

If you see a chip wagon (truck that sells fries out of it's side, and drives around town), try out the fries. Maybe you'll get lucky and get a good one. Chip Wagons are pretty common in Ottawa.

Georgie's Pizza on Carling has among my personal favourite club sub and pizza. There is more than one Georgie's Pizza: the one on Carling is the good one.

There is an upscale neighbourhood with no public transit really that is worth driving through. The GG's residence, the PM's residence, and a gold-plated house by one of the resident capitalists. If you are lucky, you might be able to get a tour in the GG's residence.

If you have access to a bike, Ottawa has a huge network of bike trails to ride on.
