Lost in Ottawa is well me...visiting local Ottawa landmarks and acting as your virtual tour guide.

Episode 1: The Rideau Canal & Lt.col. By.

"The Rideau Canal, also known as the Rideau Waterway, connects the city of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada on the Ottawa River to the city of Kingston, Ontario on Lake Ontario. The Rideau Canal was opened in 1832 and is still in use today, "with most of its original structures intact". The canal system uses sections of major rivers, including the Rideau and the Cataraqui, as well as some lakes. It is the oldest continuously operated canal system in North America, and in 2007, it was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rideau_Canal

    It's pretty cool seeing the city you live in through someone else's eyes.

    Man, I can't believe I've lived here for almost ten years and no one's ever told me that Colonel By founded Ottawa.
