Thanks everyone for hepling with my trip.

I stayed at the Westin Hotel. I pulled open my curtains and saw the PEACE TOWER in the distance. Very cool

I got there in enough time to see the parliament building. Went up to the Peace tower and took some good photos.

I had a BeaverTail. 3 in fact. I like the cinammon sugar the best.

THE WAR MUSEUM WAS CLOSED. It is relocating and will open in May. Damn.

I went to the Royal Canadian Mint. I held a gold bar in my hands, saw what 1 Million in gold looks like, and I am proud to say that I am worth 1.905 Million dollars CDN if I am worth my weight in gold. Pretty cool, considering that I have an honours degree in economics and I spent all that time in Monetary Policy class.

The National Gallery really ate up a lot of time. Who knew that we had such cool art? I knew that I wanted to see The Voice Of Fire, but I was blown away with the Van Gough's, Monet's, Picasso's, and Chegall's.

I saw the tomb of The Unknown Soldier, and I cried. There were some kids on skateboards and Mountain Bikes doing tricks, and I looked at them and they turned and left.... quickly. I stayed there quite a while.

The Photography Museum was neat, as I am a photo buff, but it was too short. I was expecting a lot more.

The Embassies (sp?) were interesting. I was not expecting to see the US embassy up close. Where did I think it would be? Toronto? LOL.

I couldn't have done it without you guys.

Well, I guess I could have, but it wouldn't have been as good.
Well, I guess maybe it could have, but I dont' think so.

I owe all of you posters a beer when you come out to Saskatchewan.
