Ottawa
Ottawa is Canada's capital, it has been described as one of the most beautiful capitals in the worldand it is a city well worth a visit. For a current view of the Parliament Buildings.

Parliament Hill is the most important landmark in Ottawa - an impressive complex built between 1859-1865. The massive stone buildings are set on the cliffs of Parliament Hill overlooking the Ottawa River and are described as one of the most beautiful government buildings in the world along with the Houses of Parliament in London.
 
Whistler
Whistler ski resort -- more properly called Whistler-Blackcomb, with two big mountains-- is 1-1/2 hours north of Vancouver, BC in Canada. Guests can fly direct to Whistler, or fly into Vancouver airport and either take a shuttle or drive the scenic Sea to Sky highway. (Caution on the driving conditions in winter, though.)
 
Whistler is a popular and very-developed area, and was a major venue in the 2010 Olympics. Whistler Village -- at the foot of gondolas that serve both mountains-- has shops, restaurants, and hotels; adjacent streets have numerous condos, townhomes, etc.

It is still considered more about babies, kids, teenages.
Babies and toddlers: Whistler Blackcomb has licensed childcare, and parents get a pager.
Kids programs: Whistler Kids is one of the largest kid ski/board programs anywhere, with centers on both Blackcomb and Whistler mountains. "Magic Carpets" make learning easy for little beginners. At the popular Adventure Camps, kids stay with the same group and instructor all week long.
Teens have a week-long "Ride Tribe"; other programs too, such as special night-time jib sessions.
