We were driving in New Edinburgh and spotted an open house of a nice red brick house, so we stopped in out of curiosity. Turns out our friend Trystan was running the open house so we checked out the place and were chatting with him as we spotted the PM walking right in front of the house, easy to spot with his Conservative Party jacket?! Out with his son and some security folk, he then stops and starts walking up the sidewalk. Since we were about to leave, all three of us were right at the door to open it and there he was saying hi to Isabelle and shaking all of our hands. Turns out he was just curious as to what the house was selling for, this was not a ploy for more votes as his minority mandate has already been determined.
Even though we aren't in his fan club, it was still a neat experience to meet our country's current leader when we least expected it. A fun story to tell others and to tell Isabelle several years from now when she takes the Parliamentary system in her Social Studies class!
