We went to Rideau Hall. It was the house of the governor general. There were a lot of trees. Each of the trees was planted by someone famous like Mikhail Gorbachev, John F. Kennedy, or some other Duke of something. There were a lot of mosquitoes so we had to leave before we even saw the hall. But, in between the trees and on the paths, there were cool things like a totem pole and an Inukshuk. The totem pole was given to the people at Rideau Hall by the Kwakwaka'wakw tribe because the governor general at that time was named Chief of that tribe. The inushuk was made for the second anual Aboriginal day. An inushuk is supposed to warn people about dangers in the arctic.
