On my last night in Ottawa, I went for a long walk around Parliament Hill so I can see what our country's main government building looks like at night. Also, according to Google Maps, The Library of Parliament is open 24 hours, so I thought the library would be worth checking out.

Spending A Rainy Day On The Rideau Canal
As a part of staying a couple of nights in Ottawa, I went for a boat ride on the Rideau Canal, which was certainly a unique experience. Right of the bat, I have to say that during the duration of the boat ride, there was heavy rain coming down from the sky. Thankfully, there is a covering over the boat, so I did not get too wet (except if you were sitting right at the side of the boat). The rain did not worsen the experience in any way, but rather made the experience more interesting.

Diefenbunker Museum Media Gallery
After my couple of nights at Mont-Tremblant, I went over to Ottawa to spend a couple of nights there as well. Before I was due to check in, I went to the Diefenbunker Museum for a tour. The Diefenbunker Museum is an underground bunker built in the early 1960s due to rising tensions stemming from the Cold War. In the event of a nuclear attack, the bunker can house key government officials (such as the Prime Minister) where they can continue to execute their duties. If the bunker is under lockdown, there is enough food to feed a staff of 535 people for 30 days.
