Brunch, a hike and the Art Gallery

My brother John let me sleep in. "You're on holidays. You're allowed to sleep in." I liked his attitude and woke up around nine. My brother, his wife and me went to a diner in downtown Ottawa for brunch. I ordered my favorite; eggs Benedict. I usually indulge myself at home. I love making it and I love the holindase sauce. Sophie, my sister-in-law, couldn't believe that I had to add a cup of butter. That's why it tastes so good. But the dish didn't taste the same as when I mad it. I thought there was a piece of meat with the eggs but Sophie assured me that it was potatoes. I have never made eggs Benedict with potatoes but it was so good. I got the idea of making eggs Benedict from the movie, "Runaway Bride." The runaway bride preferred eggs Benedict to all the ways you can have your eggs in the morning. I usually pick up ideas from movies that I watch over and over again. For example; I love daises because the were Meg Ryan's favorite in "You've Got Mail." I use lines from movies too. John and I often refereed to the movie, "There's Something About Mary," during my trip and laughed so much about it.

The diner was stuck in the fifties and Sophie said that she went to it as a teenager but that it didn't change much. It wasn't fancy but I am used to that being on a low budget. Every month, I go out with a bunch of friends for dinner and I maintain a budget of twenty dollars. That doesn't include drinks which my friends end up buying for me if I really want to take the plunge and go all out.
We then walked to Quebec, which John said it would be about a two hour walk. "What!!!!!" I wasn't up for a two hour walk. But Sophie corrected him and said it is only about twenty minutes. We walked to "The Museum of Civilization." Just our luck; it was closed for some apparent reason. So, we hiked back and went to the art gallery which started off to be really cool. I don't know if you would classify what we were looking at as exactly art but it grabbed our attention. We saw ghost like figures in a setting be it a trailer to a house. The art had something to do with light and a camera. I couldn't figure out how this guy did it. John tried to tell me that this lady waving to us was real and I said, "it can't be." "But she just waved to us," John said. I went right up to the image and found a piece of cardboard. That proved that I was right.
The art I liked the most, was the religious paintings. I stared at them while Sophie and John went somewhere else. "Oh no!" I thought. "I've lost them." But Sophie came up to me and said that she had to do some work and would catch up with us later. I finally found John and he showed me which art he liked the best. He fooled me as he said, "that has to be a..." I was amazed until he said that he was just pulling my leg.
I admired the art gallery and when I got back to Guelph, I wanted to do some art work at home.
