While being in the process of moving from Montreal to New Brunswick, I had the super good idea of bringing in my mom for what had become a trip that we’ll remember for a very long time. At first, my mom didn’t want to come to Montreal, but after her and after arguing, she finally decides to come. But I have to say, traveling from X town in New Brunswick to Montreal is not something easy. The bus ride is quite rough and the more I ride in bus, the more I find it difficult and really not comfortable. I can barely stand sitting on their sometime leather, sometime material made in bus seat. Anyhow, my mom and I, we are both done with traveling for the next couple months, that’s for sure.
My mom arrived in Montreal on Friday night last week and the following day, we were on our way to Ottawa. I know the city of Ottawa very well because I had lived in the area for about 2 years before leaving for Montreal. I left my unpack suitcases in Montreal and we quickly went to Ottawa for 2 days. It was the first time I was visiting Ottawa since I had left.
We arrived to my brother place late on Saturday evening. On Sunday, we wake up late, get ready and we went for an outdoor visit of the Parliament. We went for a walk downtown Ottawa. We continue our way to the Rideau Canal and later on Sussex Drive.
We stop by the Byward Market and we went to a cafe name Le Moulin de Provence that Barack Obama had visited during his Canadian Tour back on February 19, 2009.
We all order one of those now famous “Obama cookie” and it was real funny.
I pay for my mom and I and 2 Obama cookies with 2 regular coffees cost me something like 13 bucks. But hey, that was the cost behind eating a cookie that got eat before by Barack Obama himself... We later on went for super but eat really little, as we were still full of our Obama cookie... lol... Getting an Obama cookie was something in my mandatory what to do list.
So I did it, I had eat an Obama cookie.
