Peachtree Inn Kingston

... guards look after 500 of the worst-of-the-worst criminals (child predators, serial killers, etc). A guard explained that if they were sent other institutions, they would be killed by other prisoners. So?? Anyways, this huge stone prison was built in 1835, is constantly undergoing renovations and is strictly off-limits. <br><br>· Fort Frontenac &#8211; Strategically located at the eastern end ...

... und so sind wir da hin gegangen und ich muss sagen,d ass es sich gelohnt hat. Dabei handelte es sich um eine Licktprojektion auf dem Centre Block des Parliament begleitet von Musik und Texten. Ich weiss zwar nicht, was das Thema dieses Jahr war, aber es war ein bisschen wie eine Kanada-Gehirnwaesche, das sie unzaehlige Male Kanada erwaehnt haben. Aber die Projetion war unerwartet scharf und gut zu sehen!<br><br>Nach diesem langen Tag gings dann nur noch ab nach Hause.<br> <br> <br> 

This morning on our first stop, Mom decided to get up close and personal with some bushes but quickly retreated, as some of the plants starting stinging and she started developing a rash. She had to spray some Bactine on both legs, her right arm and her left hand -- just call her the Bactine kid! <br><br>We ended up going about 46.5 miles today!! We did most of it from 8 am-1:30 pm we were really ...

... all the towns/cities in Canada have outside patios!) Taking a look at Kingston from the visitors and downtown development perspective, it needs some sprucing up. Litter was a major problem and unkempt green spaces did not add to the ambiance. On a positive note, our waiter was very friendly and was a good spokesperson for general information about the colleges and ...

... of assistants between the age of 12 and 100, who did not want to sell you anything - bizarre - actually more like the shop in Royston Vasey - 'a local shop for local people).  <br><br>We took a pleasant walk through the city park which was surrounded by grand buildings (most of which looked like they needed renovation or were student accommodation) moving on to the sea fronted residents with lovely wooden ...

... you Kimberly and your children. I thanked Kimberly kindly and went on my way, stopping in Kemptville to fill my tank up all the way. <br><br>By the time I got to Kingston, the rain was coming down pretty hard. I couldn't see in front of my face and I had to stop for a while. Driving a motorbike in the rain is no fun. None at all. <br><br>I went to the bathroom, called Jamie ...

... we catch the ferry to the Isle of Skye. Had some time before the ferry so admired Harris tweed (since we are on Harris). It's itchy and expensive so I am not the happy owner of Harris Tweed. It's nice to look at but I wouldn't want to have to wear it. The ferry to Skye was an uneventful one and a half hours. Much calmer crossing than the one we took to Lewis. Instead of planning ahead the stupid driver took us all the way from Uig where the ferry landed down to ...

So, approximately 21 hours from now we will all be on a veeeery long flight to South Africa. Not sure we are as excited for that part as we are to get there. It will be Monday afternoon when we actually arrive at the Moholoholo Wildlife Reserve. Sure hope the in-flight movies are good!! Not sure when we will first get to the internet cafe but we'll drop a note when we can............photos.......well, we'll see how groggy and travel weary we look! ;-) Ciao til later!

... secret beach'. It was so still and quiet. For the tenth of January, it was perfect weather, so mild that the lake was water and not ice. The decaying cemetary was from the 1800s and the tombstones were sinking into the grass and dirt. Very cool

... someone else's eyes. Why is "My Reality" often different from "Your Reality"? I would like to thank everybody who sent a comment after my first email. They were greatly appreciated. Finally....Today (actually yesterday since the internet connection was not working last night when I tried uploading the pictures and sending this). After a busy weekend with RMC events, today was errand day. It started with some exercise. I decided to take my Mountain Bike out for a ride ...
