Things to do in Ottawa when you’re awake

And not 45 minutes out of the city in the middle of nowhere.

 

I spent many a dollar in that place back in the day, never earlier than about 2:30am.

Sparks St. (close to Parliament Hill) is kinda neat. Some decent restaurants. There’s a guided tour of some supposedly haunted houses in the area.

For sure check out the 67s game too. That’s in the Glebe neighbourhood which is pretty nice, and used to have a killer bagel shop when I hung out there.

 

That's too far north ... gotta attend the Windsor Ballet.

 

There’s some good museums in Ottawa if it’s too cold to be outside. Parliament, Rideau Canal and Byward Market as already mentioned are probably the hi-lites.
