Sorry for the delayed start to this one folks.
In part caused, I fear, by plunging straight into the local cuisine - Poutine. Chips (fries), curd cheese and gravy - the heat of the chips and gravy should cause the cheese to melt a bit. My chosen version also had mushrooms and spinach and these were stone cold which I think was probably unintentional.
This, or something, gave me some digestive grief which rather overshadowed Christmas Day.
Before that set in, on Christmas Eve we went for a walk along the Ottawa river.
