I get up around 9am, and have breakfast with Mark and Rene. I then take the number 34 trolley into the city. I can take the trolley further into town, but I decide to get off at the 30th Street main station, as the Franklin…

Dave has to get up early to take his car to the garage. As it happens, I wake up early too – when he returns, we walk to a nearby diner, and order breakfast – I have waffles with sausage. The day has started out…
Dave is only working until lunchtime today, so I stay in for the morning, and catch up on my journal and stuff. When Dave gets home we drive out to the West Hills County Park -the area is forested, with trails for walkers and horseback…
Dave is at work today, so I am heading down to the beach for the day. I misread a bus timetable, which means I spend 40 minutes waiting for a service that doesn’t begin until next week – I am not the only one, as…

My last day in Canada, and we start off lazily, as we have been active for the last two days. The weather has changed, and it is raining. After a late brunch, we head off to the Woodland Cultural Centre, in Brantford. Judith has quite…
We drive south to Niagara Falls for a spectacular day. Dave drives us through the tacky tourist area, which has to be seen to be believed. However the area around the river and falls is beautiful parkland, and protected. The day is hot, so we…
