We took the opportunity last night to attend the RCMP Musical Ride Sunset Ceremony here in Ottawa. The show was free of charge and held at the RCMP training grounds. It was a great show and the kids really enjoyed the chance to get close to the riders and horses at the end.
The grounds of the RCMP facility was set up with a few displays, vehicles and of course ice cream vendors. One of the interesting displays was of the Fox Moth which was built to fly the Prince of Wales. Jack loved the tractors that brought and took away the different items need as part of the show. He was super impressed that one of the tractors looked exactly like his favorite tractor….what are the odds that a green John Deere tractor would show up???
Finally an update on Ottawa Bird Watch 2010 v2.0 – mama bird managed to keep the cats/raccoons/squirrels away this time and we are happy to report that the first chick hatched yesterday. More pics to follow once they stop being so ugly.
