Beginning to think there might not be skating on the canal this year #rideaucanal #skating #Ottawa

Greetings to all Free #Lebanese

Yesterday was the first day the #RideauCanal opened up for skating, in almost two years, in Ottawa, Canada.

Wishing for peace in #Lebanon

On our walk on the #RideauCanal , didn’t realize there are huge fishes swimming along in there. Do you know what kind of fish are these? 🐠

Unfortunately, we saw a couple of dead fishes. Possibly from getting caught in all these weeds/garbage? 😢

Our 54th season on the #RideauCanal Skateway has officially come to an end. Despite the feeble winter, you came out in full force and your enthusiasm was palpable!

🧊 10 days of skating
⛸ 160,000 skaters

a beautiful moonset, a pink sunrise and the birds are singing 😉 #rideaucanal

Preeeeeetty sure we aren't gonna be skating this year. #Ottawa #rideaucanal

Top reasons to be excited about winter’s arrival in #MyOttawa :

☃️ Operation “Backyard Sledding Hill” begins

☃️ Less than a month to #ski season

☃️ Skating on the #RideauCanal soon after (🤞)

☃️ Beavertails, hot chocolate, ski hill #poutine

☃️ View out my door never gets old!

#DYK : The Guinness Book of World Records recognizes the #RideauCanal in #Canada as the world’s largest #skating rink!

Feels even more special than usual to be out on the ice this year. Awesome opening morning!

From 10th to 20th May, the #CanadianTulipFestival celebrates the seasonal flower’s beauty and its historic ties to #Canadascapital . The free outdoor event takes place in Commissioners Park, where over 300,000 tulips bloom alongside the #RideauCanal ’s picturesque Dows Lake #Ottawa

Blessed to park the running tights and cleats today (which I needed for yesterday’s run in YEG’s amazing river valley) for a run along our nation’s capital ⁦⁦Rideau Canal NHS, Parks Canada⁩. Such beauty!! #runchat #running #rideaucanal

Took a little stroll down the Rideau Canal pathway near Patterson Creek 😊 Beautiful location 🫠

What a gorgeous day we had 🤗 Sweet dreams 😴

#MyOttawa #MonOttawa #NCC_CCN #RideauCanal

#Ottawa is absolutely gorgeous this weekend and everyone should be riding a bike along the #RideauCanal today, no exceptions ☀️ 🚲

Wouldn’t be a complete trip for me to our Nation’s Capital without a run along the ⁦Rideau Canal NHS, Parks Canada⁩. Completed 8 km, absorbed in this stunning beautiful scenery! #running #runchat #autumnbeauty #rideaucanal

Family Day in the Nation's Capital. #MyOttawa #RideauCanal

My claim that I actually enjoy #Ottawa winters will be tested in the next couple of days. No walks in the park with Ozzie, but maybe the #RideauCanal will finally open for skating.

Going to miss my daily 🚲 rides to office Carleton University along the beautiful #RideauCanal 🤩

On May 29, 1832, Lt.-Col. John By, his wife and daughters, head contractors, and fellow officers arrived in Bytown aboard the steamship “Rideau” ending their 202-kilometer inaugural journey along the length of the newly-constructed #RideauCanal from Kingston. #OTD #myottawa

We couldn’t skate on it this year, but the heron has its own agenda, and no sympathy. #rideaucanal
