Ottawa, Ontario - August 5, 2015

August 5, 2015

We left Quebec City earlier than we normally do.   It was a good thing because we ran into a real traffic jam in Montreal.  Our friend Cathy Lund had warned us about that, but we didn’t see any other alternative.  Our mistake – we must have been in Montreal traffic for about two hours. 

We got to the Camp Hither Hills RV Park at about 4:00 p.m.  As we were getting parked, Bev wandered over to visit with the people sitting at the next site from us.  Of course, the first question everyone asks is “where are you from?” and “where are you going?”.  We told them we had come from PEI (Prince Edward Island) and they were heading that way, and were anxious to hear more about it.

After we got settled, we grabbed a cocktail and some of our trip information and went to join them.  We compared travel stories.  There were three couples traveling together in two coaches.  Bob & Suzanne were from Florida, traveling with Bob’s brother Jim & wife Joanne, from Wisconsin.  In the other RV were Joyce & Rob from California.  They had their two pups, Marco & Polo.

Later the guys started a bon fire and we continued visiting, laughing and of course drinking.  Finally, we decided we best get a bite to eat and turn in for the night.  We slept soundly.
