So, I've gone to the Forums program, and I must simply rave about the fantastical experience it was!
Great People! Great Discussion! Interesting things! Neat Locations! A Week on Parliament Hill!
Most of our time was spent about a kilometer from the parliament buildings, that;s about how far we strayed. The Rideau Centre... The Lester B Pearson Building... Centre and West Block... And The Supreme Court of Canada....
Oddly enough, on the way there I discovered that I enjoy airports. Somehow, it seemed that I was the only one enjoying myself in the place.... People scurrying from one gate to the next, while I hopped, skipped, and jumped around, trying to find a Subway while I waited two hours for my departure.
I made a great deal of Freinds on the Forums Program. Had a little bit of trouble staying in touch... but we're all freinds on Facebook... if that means much.... probably not. Anywho, Jenelle was cool, and Heather. I'm really sad we aren't in contact more than just being freinds on facebook.
I would have to say that my favorite experience there was antagonizing the anti-gay marriage and abortion guy. Every day there was a wrinkled man out front of the Centre Block with signs saying things like "It's Adam and Eve! Not Adam and Steve! We went up to him and we debated our case. He got pretty flustered. If it wasn't for Jenelle's quick wit in calming him down with compliments at his tenacity, it probably would have resulted in a shouting match.
Anyway..... It was great fun, and I came out of it with memorable photographs, and an awesome T-Shirt! I would recommend it to anyone!
