(Day 162) The (political) hot seat of Canada

I had the opportunity today to show a couple of visitors from the Netherlands around Canada's capital. We gravitated to the seat of the federal government - Parliament Hill. Ironically they had never been inside the parliament buildings of their own country. Here are just a few of the many images made there today.
