Meeting the Governor General at Rideau Hall!
Oh, except here is a pic of Anny and I trying an ice cream cone filled with MAPLE BUTTER (yummm) and the sticky maple stuff they put on snow, in Ottawa!!!
Anyway.....
Yesterday, we went to Rideau Hall, which is where the Governor General, Michealle Jean, lives. She held the first ever forum there for the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination! There were great speakers! And we met her!!! She is SOOOOOO nice. Oh, and the place was gorgeous and smelled of fresh flowers! AND THE FOOD! My goodness, it was AMAZING!!!! Sorry, these pics are out of order, but I HATE blogger's way of putting pics in!
Anny, Nick and I with the Queen (her picture anyway) in the room where the reception was held!
All the Katimavik participants in our cluster, and the Governor General! (I'm the one in baby blue, obviously)
The Governor General speaking (before the reception, obviously)
The room that the forum was in:
The gorgeous chandelier in the room the forum was in:
Like with the last entry, there are more pics but I won't have time to post them until after billeting!!! Sorry!!! Now I have to go eat!! BYEEEE!!!
