Hot and humid day in Ottawa and finally, EXAM RESULTS!!!
So this week has been a blast. I have had such a great time getting to know Kristen's family and really feel as if I have known them for the longest time. We had a barbeque a couple of days ago for Kristen's graduation and there was A LOT of food! Yesterday we had a nice dinner and ate some of the left-overs from the party. We went for a walk with MacKenzie (Kristen's golden retriever) along the Rideau Canal. There was this tunnel on the way down to the waterway that had hundreds of spiders hanging from the ceiling, I was a little nervous walking through the tunnel. They were quite big and fat spiders too. Gave you chills walking through the tunnel! We went down to the dam of the canal and one of the doors of the dam was open quite a bit and the raging water was a site to see! Got lots of pictures and will be posting them today. I've got many pictures, so will be posting all of those as soon as I can. Kristen and I then took MacKenzie to the dog park afterwards and had a great time, but didn't stay too long because it was so hot and humid out. This morning, I woke up and Kristen and I had breakfast. Afterwards, we both decided to check our exam results. I was so nervous checking, so I had Kristen look at the grade for me. I ended up with 52 mark on the exam! Wooohooo! I passed the exam! They must have capped the exam off too because it was such a weird number to have ended up with on the written portion. Kristen says that on a re-sit examination, they usually cap off the mark that you are able to achieve. So I'm assuming that my grade was capped off. Anyway, yay that I passed! Kristen went to check her mark and her results weren't up yet but should be in the next half hour or so. Today we are going to Gatineau Park to go for a hike and then we will go canoeing later on in the day. Should be a lot of fun. I've never canoed before, so hopefully I will not tip the canoe over! If I do, I can guarantee that there will be pictures...

CONGRATULATIONS ON PASSING!!!!! :)
Although there was never any doubt in my mind that you would.
You know, Marian told me about that poutine stuff, but I never got around to trying it when we were in Montreal. Have you tried it yet? Is it good?
I'm about to tackle my broken lawnmower - time to see if I have ANY mechanical skills at all (I'm thinking 'no', but I'm going to try anyways). :)
