Looks like it was a fun day! I wanted to go this year for the photo op, but was at a wedding all day, it just didn’t work out again. There is always next year.

We were there too! Got some great shots of the boats. We were actually attending a birthday party on the pirate ship which was a total blast!

The Obligatory Blurb

My name is Andrea and I live in Ottawa with my husband Mark and our dog Sunny who is kind of a big deal on Instagram. During the day I work as a freelance writer. I am a longtime Ottawa blogger and I've occupied this little corner of the WWW since 1999. The Fishbowl is my whiteboard, water cooler, and journal, all rolled into one. I'm passionate about healthy living, arts and culture, travel, great gear, good food, and sharing the best of Ottawa. I also love vegetables, photography, gadgets, and great design.

If you're so inclined, you can read more about me here.
