10 July, 2011 HAPPY FIRST WEDDING ANNIVERSARY, DREW AND KATE!!! We are so proud of you both! And hello Ontario! It seems strange to see so many Ontario licence plates! I left the beautiful summer resort town of Falcon Lake, Manitoba at 7:44 a.m. It was already hot and humid. I love cycling on Sunday mornings. There was virtually no traffic on the Trans Canada Hwy this morning and you can hear everything moving around in the bush. I should mention that the topography has changed to rocks and trees and hills and valleys. Around every corner is another breath-taking view. As I entered Ontario I passed a lake with loons paddling around and calling to each other. Brian saw them too. Truly magical. I also saw quite a few dead painted turtles on the road this morning. I saw one that looked like it hadn't been hit yet and it was in a live lane of traffic. I stopped my bike and got off to move it. once my sunglasses were off, it became apparent that it was just a rock!!! (I moved it anyway...) We met up at the Pinetree Restaurant and Gift Shop. I had a piece of the best home-made apple pie and coffee. We continued into Kenora arriving around lunch time. What a beautiful city built on Lake of the Woods. I also noticed alot of day cyclers come in and out of the city. I also met Vic, who is a great-grandfather to 4 and cycles everyday, whether he is at the "cabin" or his winter home in Florida. Total km 67 today.
Welcome back to two of Ontario's finest!!!!✰✰✰✰✰
