... a flight to Morocco where we'll spend a few weeks. We plan to overland it in Morocco and take the ferry across the Strait of Gibraltar and into Spain. ' We then head into Portugal for a couple of weeks in Lagos before heading back to the Spanish border to make our way all the way up the coast to Barcelona again. Come along for the ride!

... the AFL games back home.

Also the drive out of Buffalo was lengthy. Many roads were blocked off so I have to put in another route to head back to Newark which included unsealed roads to get to the highway. Cops everywhere too and they don't like anyone creeping over the limit here....unlike the experience on the CA and NV freeways a few days back. Once on the freeway we were set for another 6 hour drive back.

... We both got a coffee but I will admit mine was twice the size of Linda's and I also got a choc glazed donut too while Linda went the non-fat blueberry muffin with hers.

We were only on the road for another hour or two and we were both cactus again. We had to pull over in a truck stop and passed out for over 2 hours. It was the best sleep yet of the whole trip So tired we heard nothing and felt quite good.
Hit the road again ...

The falls were falling all right - especially when illuminated with changing lights at night. Las-Vegas-By-The-Falls (a.k.a Niagara Falls town) was a bit of a surprise - definitely an American import, but Canadian version was somewhat less boring and tasteless than original US one

... and how God has great plans for me. “Look where I am at? Even though I am not perfect and made mistakes and even though there is a piece missing in my heart, I stayed strong and am being blessed. “God knew I needed all of this to heal my spirits; to make me have a new and healthy life; to be grateful and blessed. Again, where is science in all of this?

After all my thoughts, I made it across the bridge after being asked many ...

... the grass and weeds have never been cut AND there are junk yards along the interstate. The whole state looks very unappealing. As soon as we entered New York State, the interstate highway became a "Turnpike" so we had to stop at an "entry toll booth" to collect a pass ticket. When we made our turn towards Buffalo there was an "exit toll booth" where we had to pay $14 for traveling 80 miles. I told the collection girl that it was the worst interstate that we've ...

... is difficult enough pulling your home behind you, we caught the remnants of Gustav or Ike or Hanna - not sure which one but it was severe weather to say the least. Torrential downpour, no visibility - hard to read road signs until you were too close to heed them - can't stop on a dime with a 30 ft. RV. But thanks to a very conscientious co-pilot (lol) we made it to Niagara Falls without incident. It has since cleared up nicely and ...

... showing off all of their acquired knowledge of things Aussie and new gadgets, toys and collectables. I got exactly NO sleep so you can imagine how thrilled I was to finally arrive in Toronto, get through Customs, collect our bags (minus one, that was delivered today, thank goodness) and get home, to sleep. The boys finally slept, one until 3 pm and the other two until 6 pm. Tonight should be fun! So it's going to take a few days ...

... awesome you could feel the power of the water and see it just a few feet away, very fun gettin sprayed by the mist haha. Also the rainbows were amazing absolutely crazy just kept being a new one even two at one time. We at dinner in skyline Tower which was really good but a little bit scary being afraid of hieghts. A tight rope walker guy was supposed to be walking from the Casino to the top of the tower while we were eating but he canceled it because of ...

... me to do something about those altruistic hopes most of us have for the world. My effort was to step out of my typically shy character, become a self-appointed ambassador in blue jeans and carry messages of greeting and an offer of an information exchange from my hometown - Fort Erie, Ontario, Canada - to officials in communities and regions I would visit... a goodwill project. I'd given myself a job. Going by bicycle was the original plan, but an injury just ...
