When the last of your Christmas family visitors happen to arrive on the first day that the Rideau Canal is open for the season, and they’ve never visited the world’s longest (or is it largest?) outdoor skating rink, and the temperature rises above minus 10C for the first day in a week, an extended family excursion for Beavertails seems almost inevitable!
(Can you believe that my wee baby Tristan is the second-tallest person in this photo? It’s been a fun holiday game seeing which adult family member he has outgrown over the holidays!)
my kind of trip to the canal….no skates, but beavertails 🙂 perfect day for it too!
Isn’t this fun? I haven’t been skating there for ages. My teacher girlfriend and I would go every Christmas holiday!
