i put on my overcoat and walked out into winter

Today we took in the last of what Ottawa had to offer. Had some cheerios in the lovable kitchen. There is Sophie enjoying the backpackers.We said our goodbyes to maxi-pippins:
I think only Sophie was brave enough to pat him goodbye. We wandered out into the snow, and finished the last leg of the hearty walk. We walked down to City Hall, and then around and into the Currency Museum. It was surprisingly good. We had some Timmy Horto's for luncheon on the go and hurried off to the bus station, as our last bus line up which was meters and meters long had inspired fear. We arrived in plenty of time, and got what we thought to be good positions on the bus. But the trip soon turned to ruins. Mum was next to dubbed "poking Peruvian" who kept on poking her and saying stupid things and generally being stupid and annoying. The bus was heated to 30 degrees, and as a result Sophie was feverish and I was terribly bus sick (for the better part of the 5 hour trip). We finally arrived in Toronto (an hour late!!) and checked into our hostel. We tried to find alleged 'little India' which was meant to be just down the road, but we could not find it, so settled on pizza and fries with lots and lots of mystery dipping sauce.
