fajrdrakoThe Rideau Canal at the end of October is a dreary sight. Last week, my cousin Barbara and I had supper at the Canal Ritz, a restaurant right on the Canal: it was beautiful.
Two days later, they drained the canal and the place is mostly mud. The canal looks pretty dismal between the time it's drained, and the time it turns into a gorgeous skating rink.
Crossing the Bank Street Bridge over the Rideau Canal at dusk, I looked down at the water and say that the ducks were having a big party:
Maybe the low water gives them better access to those delicious weeds.
