We started off today with a swim and a soak in a hot tub, had a good hot meal, and hit the road. The first stop was Magnotta Winery the only winery in Canada to also have both a brewery and a distillery. Though we didn’t have time for a tour we sampled a number of their products, including their icewine, grappa, and a white merlot. After sampling, we made a few purchases and headed east toward Montreal. Our next stop was in the small city of Kingston, Ontario. There we took a trolley tour of the historic city. Highlights of the tour included: Queens Collage, Fort Henry, a surprising number of penitentiaries, some interesting sculptures, and the Royal Military College. From Kingston, we continued our journey east and stopped for the night at a campsite in the 1000 islands. From our campsite on Mille Roches island we had a spectacular view of the St. Lawrence River. While we were setting up camp, Ronda the Rondo made a new friend when a very adventurous local squirrel decided to explore her interior.
Today’s lesson is Canadian speed limits are only for foreigners.
