SW; THE BRAVE TELLS OF OUR TRIP TO OTTAWA


INA'S INTRO
So we took a two day trip to Ottawa. it was our first hotel trip as a family (all our trips are visiting family and camping at powwows). So this was a big deal. We went Saturday morning, arrived around noon. We spent the first day around our hotel (which was near parliment buildings and Byward market) and swimming. The second day was spent at the museum. Each of the three middle children wrote an essay about a different part of the trip. SW did his without assistence as he is working towards being able to do a full essay. The younger ones had me assist by either asking lots of questions or taking dictation, depending on their strengths.

SW'S ESSAY

The Museum
We went to Ottawa on the weekend. On Sunday we went to the Museum of Civilizations. At the museum we went to the Canadian Children's Museum. Someone who worked there gave us a passport to collect stamps. We put on Costumes. Ko-Ko, Runner & Sunny Not were playing with the crane. I went on exploring and finding lots of stamps for my passport, this was my favorite part. Soon we went to a section about post offices and postage stamps. My siblings and I found a part that lets you ding to the people in that poirtion of the museum. Then we went to the cafeteria and ate our lunch. After lunch we went to the Native section. We saw a fake jungle like in B.C. and Ko-Koloved it! I really liked this cool rock bed that we all lied down on. We looked at the Native portion of the museum. Then we went to look at the treasures of Afganistan. Sunny Not and I accidentally set off an alarm Mom and Dad said. I don't think so because we didn't touch anything we were just really close to this cool thing. After that we left.
