On a trip with my family to Ottawa…..!!

Hello everyone, these days I am a bit relieved from my office work and planning to make a trip to Ottawa with my family members. I have not yet told them about the plans, but just re-planning the whole thing so that I don’t leave a thing unseen. I would love to have some useful information on the facilities available there for a family stay. We are a 5 member family. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

There is lots to keep you busy in Ottawa. There are museums, art
galleries, the Mint, Parliament buildings.

If you're looking for hotels, I can't help. But there is a lot to do
there. A couple of my favorites:

- Museum of Technology: http://www.sciencetech.technomuses.ca/
- Museum of Civilization (across the river in Gatineau-Hull):
http://www.civilization.ca/cmc/home/cmc-home
- RCMP Musical Ride Cent
http://www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/mr-ce/centre-eng.htm

It looks like there's a strike on at the moment at the Museum of
Civilization and the War Museum. Details at their website.

When exactly will you be there? If it's after the Rideau freezes, you
can skate on the "World's Longest Skating Rink".

Ottawa is a great place to visit and you would really love to have your family there in the city. I was there with my friend, though the trip was for a corporate meeting, but did get some time to get a glimpse of the city and we just loved it. As for the staying part, I would recommend to have a look at the rental apartments in Ottawa to help you find a good one.

I live in Ottawa. What kinds of things interest your family? Museums,
nature, bike paths, winter sports, etc?
