TRAVEL EXPERT MIKE COHEN
Q: I hear that
Canada's National Capital Region is a fabulous place to
visit. Can you tell me more?
A: Year-round, the
Ottawa Region
www.ottawatourism.ca
is a great place to visit. But as the weather outside gets a
bit colder, the Nation's Capital does indeed deserve to
remain on your vacation radar screen. In fact, there is
nothing I like better than booking accommodations at Les
Suites Hotel
www.les-suites.com,
which is only steps away from the Rideau Canal, and go for a
family skate in the great outdoors overlooking the
Parliament Buildings......more |

On Cloud
Nine
My kids and I are
on cloud nine. Why? I picked up
the latest children’s book by
Rhode Montijo
called
Cloud Boy.
What a delight to find out that
Rhode Montijo is of
Pablo’s Inferno
fame. I was was shocked to find
such a simple little story
brought laughter to my kids’
faces. The story is short and
sweet. This book has all the
elements of style to be a
classic children’s book .This
book was worth every penny. Well
done Mr. Montijo. Buy
