This morning very early, two of my very good friends and myself went to the Great Glebe Garage Sale!!
The "Glebe" is a neighbourhood in Ottawa and they organize a mega garage sale once a year. Many households participate by putting up a garage sale on their yard and people walk through these to bargain for used things. Prices are quite good and the earlier you go, the more stuff you can find.
Since this event draws a huge amount of people, there are a few extra things happening. For example we saw a booth from one of the Canadian political parties (the liberals). There are also people who were giving real music shows with several instruments and a singer right from their balcony.
I ended up buying a trivia game, rackets for the beach and I took a free book, for a total of $4. I think that was an excellent deal!
Unfortunately for you this is the only tourist-like activity that I did today so that is all you will get :) The rest of my time was spent having lunch with my two friends, and then we split so I went to the beach, later on I met again with the same friends for dinner and finally I went to a dance!
Sadly, tomorrow will be my last post because I'm starting to work again on Monday so stay tuned for my final goodbyes!
