Tasty Beaver

We went skating on the Rideau canal, the World’s longest skating rink, today. Well, that is if you can call it skating when two adults are clinging onto each other whilst their legs slide and kick out in all directions and toddlers race and weave between them.

After half an hour, or put another way 30 metres, we returned the skates and headed for the food stalls. You probably think that Canadians are generally nature lovers. We’ve found that this isn’t quite the case because at the food stalls we had a beaver tail, coated in maple syrup! It was lovely with a hot chocolate and hot apple cider.
