O Canada!

Montreal and Ottawa are such great cities to visit. My mom grew up in Montreal, but unfortunately she wasn't able to come with us. So, she created the perfect itinerary instead. We of course visited her childhood home, her school, where she and my grandpa went to college. But, we did some tourist stuff too. I've included her list of tourist things to do below in case you're interested in doing a whirlwind tour with kids some day! The only thing I would add to her ideas next time is kayaking the Lachine Rapids and maybe going to Montreal Eaux Vives if I'm ready by then!
