I’m glad I have photos, because the whole trip is a big huge blur to me now. Where did we have that awesome coconut shrimp? Where did I eat that huge gingerbread sundae? Where did we see all that cool artwork? Oh well. After Peggy’s Cove we drove to Digby, where we caught the ferry to […]

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.
