Parking headaches

Someone online mentioned about the fun of parking at a hospital. The last time I needed to do that it was quite fine and I easily found a space.

I noticed on the Ottawa Hospital web site that it is not recommended to park on the street. So if the parking lot is full, where are you supposed to park?

It is sometimes a challenge to find a parking space in downtown Ottawa near the church. When I went during the day I parked on a side street. I sometimes manage to park in one of the three spaces at the church - especially when I am doing Altar Guild duty.
