Most of today’s walk was forested on pebble paths beside the Ottawa River. Cyclists, pedestrians, and dogs shared the path. All bicycles must have a bell to warn pedestrians of their approach. How lovely to hear a tingle-jingle and not a burst “make way.”

Yes beauty to behold. I’m amazed at the flatness of the area. It makes for great walking while being a different beauty from our Blue Ridge Mountains. ~linda

Oh, but the sign was in French and English as all signs in Ottawa are. Plus there was a “Keep out of the water” picture. ~linda
