Fall's first colours


As we gaze out across the skyline of Ottawa we can see the first colours of Fall beginning to appear. The colours grow bolder literally day by day as the cooler weather starts to take hold. While the temperatures are dropping our luck with the weather continues to hold.

Today dawned bright with largely blue skies and sunshine despite forecasts still predicting scattered showers less than 24 hours ago. We couldn't have been happier! Furthermore, for our final days in Canada the weather is predicted to be sunny on all but one afternoon.

The first of the season's fruit and vegetables are also now on display in local markets. We stumbled across two impressive displays of gourds, pumpkins and marrows at Byward Market earlier today. As you can see, the market's colours were almost as stunning as the trees around us.
