Touring Canada

We departed Minnesota on Thursday the 15th.  Mike drove 320 miles to Iron Mountain Michigan.  We spent the night in the Wal-Mart parking lot.  Not much happening in Iron Mountain.

Friday morning we headed out and drove 240 miles to Sault Ste. Marie Michigan.  Spent the night in a casino campground with full hook ups for $10.00 a night.  We did go in a play the slots, each of us doing are usual $10.00, so it actually cost us $30.00 for the night.  Try to save some money and into the machine it goes. 

Saturday we entered Canada at Sault Ste. Marie.  The border crossing was uneventful, They looked at our passports and asked two questions, do you alcohol or tobacco with you.  Yes to alcohol and no to tobacco, and we were on our way.

We drove 290 miles to North Bay Ontario and once again spent the night at the Hilton Wal-Mart.  Just before sunset we unhitched the truck and drove to the bay.  They have a beautiful lake walk with a harbor and a couple of beaches.  Seems to be the popular place to be at sunset on a Saturday night.

The flowers were amazing they were along the walk for about a mile.

The sunset was not much, but the walk was great.
