We had another short day travel day today and stopped just before locking through at Merrickville, Ontario our way to Ottawa, where we will meet up with my brother, Doug who will join us for a week of cruising along beautiful Rideau Canal back from Ottawa to Kingston. Today, July 01, is Canada Day, equal to our 4th of July, so all the flags are out and each town will have a parade to celebrate Canada’s 143 year of independence.
We are finding the Canadian people friendly, kind, and extremely helpful in every way possible. They make us feel so welcome. We also find that everywhere we go there is no litter, all the grounds are very well kept, with trees and flowers everywhere.
We lost the use of our internet “air card” due to lack of compatible towers and cost…..so we will search for WiFi signals along the way to update our blog.
This morning it is quite cool, temp in 50’s and wind strong, very unlike Florida in July. We now understand why so many Canadians visit the South having such cold winters and short mild summers.
