Stella's Story


We got picked up the first day at the airport. We went to the hotel and we fell asleep in one second. The next day we went to Ottawa with the boat.

Looking at Parliament from Ottawa River just before the 8 locks

When we went through the locks it was really like, WOW!  We also went to the light festival.  It was really cool!

Finn and I slept on the boat.  When we woke up, we went shopping in Ottawa and we bought loads of things.
Don't look now

Then the girls had a pedicure and our feet became beautiful.
Oh so glittery!
Grandma, Mama, and I went for a walk after dinner and we saw a big spider statue.  Later we went back to the boat and fell asleep.
Not the spider, but another nice statue we saw on our walk
The next day we took the boat to Hartswell Lock.  Finn, Mama, and I were taking turns on the bikes.

It was really fun because we could go really fast.
Look, I can even carry my bike!
When we wanted to have dinner outside at the picnic table, it was a sad day.  When we got everything ready, it started pouring rain and we needed to take everything back inside.

The next day we went to Long Island and we went for some very fast dinghy rides.  Mama and I went swimming in the river.
 
Just Mama, me, and our noodles
 We went rowing in the boat to fish some fishing stuff out of the trees.

For dinner we had lasagna and it was super nice!


The next day we went with the boat to Burritts Rapids.  Mama and I went swimming.  We also all played Frisbee.  For dinner we had pizza.

The next day we went with the boat to Smith Falls.

Everybody had a tiny walk and then we all rested.  After we rested we all had a tiny snack.  After that tiny mini, mini, mini snack I went for a walk with my Dad.  It was a really nice walk and when we came back to the boat we went for a car ride. In the car we were trying to find a bookstore and we found one.  So we parked the car.  We walked over to the bookstore and it was closed, so we just went for a wander.  After our wandering, we went back to the boat.  For dinner we had chicken stir-fry with rice.  It sounds quite yucky, but I had a rice sandwich and it was super nice.  I wish I could have that dinner again!  After dinner, Grandma and I went for a walk to the hotel where my mama, my Dad, and Beth were going to sleep.  When we came back from the walk, the guys went to the hotel and the boaters played Kings in the Corner.  After I won, we went to bed.

The next day we all slept really late, 9:00.
Do I really have to get up?

 
I'll get the Cheerios!
After we had cheerios for breakfast, we went sailing.  it was super fun.  We went swimming off the boat.  After swimming we went to get ice cream, but it was closed.  We went back to the boat and had pizza for dinner.  Later we went to bed on the boat.
Can I be the boss today?
The last day we went swimming and sailing.
Stella and Becky

We had some scones and then we went to the hotel near the airport because the next day we are going to the airport.
