NAMGAR GT-39

We spent a few days in Ottawa to meet up with fellow MGA enthusiasts.

We strapped the suitcase on and hit the road

A stop in Merrickville - we weren't the only ones in an old car

We were treated to a River Boat Cruise, passing all the sites

The theme of the evening was 'red & white'

The main event was the 'showing' of the cars

  Our car was so special, we had to have the Mounties guard it!

Some people were very creative!

Imagine using a teapot as an 'overflow' receptacle!

I found time for an afternoon stroll along the river and met a friendly family

The evening was capped off with dinner at The Social in Byward Market

Seared tuna with coconut ice cream

Halibut on hominy

We met lots of friendly people from all over North America 

and renewed old friendships.

It was a fabulous few days.
