Ottawa - Day 1
Here I am in the nation's capital and I spent most of the day in my hotel room. This afternoon, I had a library visit, which went over very well, but then I had to rush back to my hotel and write a Life article for the Edmonton Journal. The only time I could go out again was for dinner at Mama Teresa Restaurant, a very popular Italian restaurant which judging by the autographed photos on the walls is frequented by many politicians. The food was great, and I'm almost thinking of going back again.
The great news of the day is that I was able to contact someone at the Museum of Civilization to interview. I have to gather more research for the Annick book proposal. Hopefully, I'll be able to get enough to put my outline over the edge, so that I can get the contract.
Tomorrow, I'm into the MASC writing workshops, and then a dinner. If the weather is nice on Thursday, I might wander through Byward market after my meeting.
