If you are here and new to this trip I just want to let you know it is entirely in reverse!!!
Friends have asked what was our favourite thing on the trip and we mostly answer that this country of Canada is big and beautiful and full of interesting places and things to see. However, we can say some specific favourites when given a moment to think. I must also remind you there is a page in this site (only the original version, sorry) that is called Favourite places in Canada. This list though could be considered the final favourites:

Scenic drive: Saskatoon to Winnipeg … okay that’s a joke, we can’t narrow this down to one … a list of good drives takes you across the country! Just do it!
Ice cream
Biggest – Kejimkujik National Park, Nova Scotia
Best soft ice cream – Prince Rupert Ferry (Island Farms Dairy)
Most expensive – Baskin Robbins, 17th Ave. Calgary, Alberta

Is this enough already? We think so.
Thanks Karen, the pictures were fun to take and we enjoyed very nearly every minute of our trip. First week of our snowy, cold winter and we are wishing to be back in the hot muggy southern Ontario days of summer! But it is nice to be home again and now we can start dreaming up the next adventure. Well maybe the next adventure is the Snake River, and we just need to get some information to the interested folk in Dartmouth? Hope everyone is well!
