Family Day was born in Canada when there was a need for a long weekend to celebrate something. For my wife and I, we have this time off.

And what better way to celebrate Family Day than with family? We invited Mom to come along.  

We start on Friday night right after I get home, and it’s a long drive to Smith Falls. There, we will stay the night and begin our exploration of the region for the weekend.

I am really looking forward to this trip; the map of where we will be going can be found here.

Feel free to use this plan for your own personal trip to the Ottawa area. Below is the itinerary for our trip:
