Dale,
We must have just missed you. We were tied to the wall for a week and went down the locks on Aug 17th. We loved the city, walking to watch the Changing of the Guard, the laser show on Parliament and the fireworks. We locked a cable from our boat through a cleat.
Having power on the wall is a big help. Unfortunately, the city removed fresh water access.
One night about 1:30am, we had a person board our boat. I heard him on the back deck and surprised him. He leapt off our top deck onto the floating dock - lucky he didn't break his leg.
The Rideau canal was our favorite part of the Triangle Loop.
