... in his shadow.<br><br>Kakabeeka Falls is beautiful spot to the north of the city. The water cascades over the rocks,which give it a strange yellowish colour. Other than that it is similar to the many other falls we have seen along the way. It does carry the tale of a young Indian princess who lead her kidnappers, the raiding Sioux tribe, over the falls when the forced her to lead them to her people. Some versions of the story say she ...

Wir sind bereits um 7 Uhr aufgestanden, um eine Wanderung zu machen, welche der Tiere wegen am frühen Morgen oder Abend empfohlen wird.<br><br>Nachdem wir den Sonnenaufgang bestaunen konnten, machten wir uns auf den Weg. Ausser einem hübschen Seelein und Moskitos haben wir jedoch keine Tiere gesehen.<br><br>Unsere Weiterfahrt brachte uns durch wunderbare Landschaft und den ersten farbigen Bäumen, am Lake of the Woods vorbei, nach Thunder Bay in den Kakabeka Falls PP.

... State Park broke up the car ride with a nice mini-hike and spectacular views of powerful waterfalls rushing and swirling down to Lake Superior through the cylindrical bowls of rock they've carved over time. <br><br>After crossing the border into Ontario, our first stop was Thunder Oak Cheese Farm, a family-run, dairy that produces different varieties of Gouda and Swiss cheese. We picnicked on our purchases and ...

... glorified the Canada goose with huge sculptures all over town&#8230;not sure what the deal was there! We then stumbled upon a little gem called White River, the hometown of Winne the Pooh!! Very exciting indeed! The black bear named Winne (named after Winnipeg) was bought by a Canadian soldier that brought her to London. While at the London zoo, AA Milne saw Winnie and was inspired to create &#8216;Winne ...

... The deal was that she'd drive about 2 hours to Longlac but she was on a roll so she drove 3 and a half hours, 317 Kms, all the way to Beardmore. She drove through rain part of the way. She passed and was passed. Nice job Allison! <br><br>Thunder Bay looks very nice. We'll see more of it on the way home later in July.<br><br>Tomorrow on to Winnipeg and Cecile!

... to walk into the actual bathroom to brush my teeth - and hair - in front of a mirror! Wow! It just keeps getting better. It was funny watching everyone come out of the showers with clean clothes and tussled wet hair, simply glowing. It was like a complete transformation within the space of just a few minutes. I was wearing an old softball shirt which said "Acadiana" on it. Mireille looked at it and said, "so you're seriously a Cajun, huh?" We hustled back to the campsite and ...

... embarrassed of that decision, but it is what it is. The ultimate irony of the situation (in shadow of yesterday's events) is that, once again, I was paddling with Gilles and Dalia - except for the fact that today it was I supplying the dead weight instead of Gilles. I climbed into the middle of the canoe with my pullover, my wool socks, and my wool hat still on. We all ate our Clif Bars and then started paddling across the lake towards the nearby narrows. The lake was still ...

Thursday, June 19 We awoke to a spectacularly beautiful day and set out to explore the park. The western side of this peninsula forms Thunder Bay, and the city of that name is across from its southern tip. This side has steep cliffs down to the lake, and we drove to a spectacular overlook, cantilevered out over the lake. Lake Superior was uncharacteristically calm this morning, so much so that we could see the clouds reflected in it. On the ...

Our fiscal situation had led us to the bus station in North Bay, and a couple of hours later to the bus station in Sudbury, for the long journey over the provincial border to Winnipeg. It's a universal phenomenon, the way that bus stations and the bus system seem to attract some of the most eccentric characters, from the seedy to the downright strange, and give off the same certain gloomy aura. We got a good taste of it over the 26 hour period ...
