One year with the one I love

This past weekend was the mark of one year with someone very very special to me. I love him very much.

One year was actually on the friday, July 25th. We made plans to go to mexicali Rosa downtown, I loved it, it was great.

Sunday we went to Mont Cascade, it was awesome. I surprised myself by trying more slides than I thought I ever would. I am kind of a wuss when it comes to that. Only three slides I absolutely didn't want to go on, one that you ended up upside down, one that was called the vortex although it looked like a toilet and as you were being flushed, it looked cool except that I wasn't too fond of the idea of the possibility of arriving head first in the water, I love water and swimming but not so brave when it comes to that. and the other was the kamikazee because of its big drop, went on one like that once and I think my heart is still up there, I know that is the thrilling part but I did not like the feeling so I decided to pass on the kamikazee.

But still proud of myself for trying: tornado alley. Was a little scared becasue I thought people ended up upside down, but after I tried it once I went again and loved it.

The pro racer one was great as well, the riveer rapids and also tried the black magick slide, I was a little reluctant at first since it is in the dark and you have no idea where you are going, but I actually enjoyed the ride a lot. The mammoth river was great as well, you get a big tube and get a lot of people in at once.

Unfortunately I don't have pictures since didn't want to leave the camera on a picnic table for people to steal, you never know. Plus too busy enjoying the slides.

But here is a link to the website, there are even videos of the slides, pretty neat:

Dinner at Robbie's with someone special

October 25, 2007 marked the day of knowing Shawn for three months so we decided to celebrate by going out to dinner at Robbie's Italian restaurant on st-laurent. He loves it and used to work there as well. Funny that it is an italian restaurant as it is owned by lebanese people, but hey they sure know how to make great italian food.

We asked someone to take a picture of us in front of the restaurant, as a souvenir. And he said "you two would look great in any photos". Awwwwwwwww.

He treated me to dinner at Robbie's and in the morning I treated him to breakfast at Cora's I can't believe he had never been there, I believe he loved it. Cora's is one of my favourite restaurant for breakfast, because they pile up your plates with tons of fruits, and the fruit cocktail is to die for. Always get the strawberry banana one, who knows perhaps some other time I will try another one. Well actually I did Shawn got the raspberry one and had a sip, was pretty good too. No pictures, though I found this logo on google, because it was pretty much raining and as it is always the case at Cora's you always have to wait in line outside, that is how great the food is.

We both decided to have spaghetti and meatballs so that we could make spaghetti sandwiches hehehe and do as we both used to do as kids whenever we ate spaghetti. When I told Shawn I used to do that and he told me he always did the same thing, we were both amazed at that... almost as if we were destined to meet, a real soul connection, exactly alike in so many ways. That one thing is just one of the things we always did the same way growing up without ever knowing.

We carved another pumpkin as well, I found this little baby pumpkin and decided to get it so we could also carve it together. The design is a bat and I also added the words I love u to the back. Felt bad that our other pumpkins rotted so quick and had to be "put to sleep" hehehe so soon.

On Halloween Eve we saw each other again and went for the original Ottawa Haunted Walk. Basically you just walk with a group of people and the guide tells you all different ghost stories that happened to people at various landmark in the Ottawa region.

I love this I would suggest anyone to go see it at least once. The original haunted walk is interesting but I think the ghost and gallows - this one is only for a short period around halloween - is quite interesting as well. I took that one a while back with two friends.
