Wednesday, August 27, back into Canada

There had been a light rain overnight and we got on the road at 9:30 onto M-35, which is a scenic route along Green Bay and Lake Michigan. Lost an hour when we returned to the Eastern time zone.

Stopped for fuel and lunch in Manistique under cloudy skies.

Eventually, we reached I-75 and headed north to Sault Ste Marie. After one last fuel stop, we arrived at the toll booth, where it cost us $7.00 to leave the U.S.

As we were crossing the bridge from Sault Michigan to Sault Ontario, we noticed the traffic entering the U.S. was backed up halfway across the bridge. There was no lineup for us!
No problem clearing customs, although I was prepared with lists of the contents of the fridge and of our purchases. I wasn't asked for either.

At 4:00, we arrive at our friends, Mike & Diane, who had just returned from their Newfoundland trip. After getting the truck & trailer parked in their driveway, we spent a very pleasant evening catching up. This included a delicious dinner of ribs, corn & salads. Best meal we have had in a while!

Home tomorrow
