RV Trips

Sadly, Dave and I are finishing our last week on our tour of Eastern Canada and the Canadian Maritimes.  We were fortunate to hike to the beautiful falls pictured above on our last day.  It’s been a fabulous visit and we can’t wait to return for even more exploring.  Dave even chatted with a few

The week started on my birthday.  Yay!  We drove over to the central west coast of Nova Scotia to visit Digby, the Scallop Capital of the World.  After settling into our campsite, we drove down the coast and took a small ferry to see the Balancing Rock on Long Island (it was only a 3

Great Stop #1:  Ottawa, Ontario Ottawa, the capital of Canada, has grand Victorian architecture in its government buildings and excellent restaurants.  We celebrated Dave’s birthday at Mamma Teresa’s, which opened in 1970,

We’ve arrived in Canada!  But first, how did we get here from St. Petersburg, FL?  To begin our first 5th wheel summer RV trip, we headed north.  We stopped in RV campgrounds in Georgia, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania arriving just outside of Buffalo, New York after 9 days of travel.    Dave and I planned
