On September 11th started our trek from Ontario to the North shore of the St. Lawrence, crossed over by ferry to Trois Pistoles and started the Gaspe trip at St. Flavie heading clockwise on Hwy 132 around the point into Gaspe and Perce. Since then we’ve been coming along the Baie des Chaleurs and todayContinue reading “Gaspe Pensinsula Day 8”

Gaspe Peninsula Day 5
We got really lucky today as everything we had planned relied on good weather, and we got it! Today was mostly spent getting to and touring around Forillon National Park at the far end of the Gaspe Pensinsula. We were told that the day before was foggy and windy, and tomorrow a storm is expected,Continue reading “Gaspe Peninsula Day 5”
Last day in Thunder Bay
Today we headed out to see Sleeping Giant Provincial Park and do some backroads excursions. We have had many magnificent views of the Giant across the bay from here but hadn’t ventured out to the peninsula to explore the park. On entering the park we were greeted by a deer at the side of theContinue reading “Last day in Thunder Bay”

Fortunately when we booked our hotelsContinue reading “Road trip … some other time”

It will begin with visits to Civil War sites, add in a little country music, and end with a visitContinue reading “Road trip!”
A day at the beach
Today was relaxing but filled with interesting moments. I saw more iguanas in one day than I have since I arrived. There were iguanas on the patio around the pool, in the lawn, up the trees and on the fence. And one darted under my lounge chair by the pool. I am not sure whoContinue reading “A day at the beach”
La Isla Restaurant
One of the pleasures of travelling is discovering great places to eat. La Isla is a short walk from where we are staying, down a palm tree lined boulevard. The restaurant is unlike anything at home, with open sides and a palm thatched roof. The lady who does all the cooking opened it as aContinue reading “La Isla Restaurant”

Sunsets over Bahia de Banderas
Every night we sit on the balcony and watch the sunset. Every night is a little bit different, but all are special.
