The Last Night in Ottawa

The Last Night in Ottawa

There are a lot of good memories in Ottawa trip, one of the impressive things was happened in the night pub at the last night in Ottawa.


We went to the night pub, named "Rainbow" because there were some good bands which were going to sing and play music instruments. I was look forward and ready to fall into the happy time there. I ordered red wine and shook body while the music started. One grandpapa, who was a gentle man, and as his actions and gestures, I guess that he was a boss of this pub, came upstairs to talk something to me and seemed to call me go downstairs to dance. Of course I didn't follow him because I was enjoying seeing those music bands' performance with my bird's view.

Then, after a long time later, the grandpapa invited me to dance. I said I'm very shy to dance in the downstairs and in front of public; therefore, he led me dance on upstairs, which just beside my friends and some of customers. While we were in the dancing, he whispered me how to do every next action and step, so that I could follow him and know when I should turn a circle and how many circle. I was extremely enjoying the dance because his teaching and leading.

After the dancing, my friends told me with sharp eyes, "Alison!! Don't pretend that you don't know how to dance any more!! ", and the other friend told me, "you danced so well, and the other customers ask me "is she your friend? She danced so nice.'' "

In conclusion, the last night in Ottawa was very amazing experience! It was my first time to dance in pub because the old man’s invitation. He was a very good teacher! I suddenly found that if I have very good dancing teacher, I might be a perfect dancer as I imaged when I was a child. That night, a part of my dreams had come true!

Alison,
I'm glad to hear that you had a good time in Ottawa. I wonder about this grandpapa - how old was he? I hope you enjoyed the rest of your visit to our nation's capital.

Hi, Sue,

I was extremely enjoyed our visiting in Little Itali. It is truth that it will have more courage if many people went to explore somewhere together.

I got a lot of courage and opportunities to ask servers many questions about Itali's representative meal.

Maybe it also due to that I was so excited that many friends went there together, so I dared to ask questions.

Anyway, it was awesome experience for me, and I will never forget it.

Oh, yeah!

The old grandpapa in pub, I guess that he is around 60 age or over it because he has complete white hair and gentle and polite style of speech.

Hey sis,

I'm so happy that you had a fabulous time! For my Thanksgiving holiday, I did not have turkey or anything along the line :( It's so sad because I've been craving for a big, festive meal for the longest time.

Anyway, I did get to go to a rave, for the very first time in my life :) It was crazy fun, but I also got sick from the all-nighter, just in time for final. Great... :p

Hope all is going well with you!

Grandpa is okay so far, don't worry about it.
