Canada Aviation and Space Museum

This Saturday we went to watch the Changing Guard Ceremony which takes place in front of the Parliament. The performance started at ten o'clock in the morning and it was finished a half hour later. The guards were dressed as the British ones, with a bearskin hat, a red jacket and blue trousers. It may be very hard to wear this clothes in summer because it was really hot!
Afterwards, we took the bus and we went to the Canada Aviation and Space Museum  (http://aviation.technomuses.ca/mobile/index.html) where we could see amazing airplanes. We learnt that Canadian people were pioneers in aviation and they made the first planes, which were very simple as they didn't have any motors, but they were difficult to use.  We also saw Second War World planes, some ones belonged to RAF and the other ones to Luftwaffe and we saw other rescue and emergency planes and helicopters too.
We had lunch at St Laurence Shopping Mall and after that we all went to Rideau Centre just to spend our free time there and have fun until we decided to go back home.
