Home to Wasaga Beach
A second day off and we were raring to go. It felt kind of odd to be leaving home for a second time, knowing we will be on the road for two more months. Part of the needed energy to keep going is due to our 'new crew members' Patrik and Taryn. They are neighbours who are joining us for a week and hopefully we will be close to Ottawa within that time. So now we are five!
On the road by 8:00 to a beautiful bright blue sky. A 2 km coast down Bayview Hill had us wishing that it was downhill all the way to Newfoundland. At Meaford we decided to ride the Georgian Trail (the old rail line) all the way to Collingwood. The trail is 'fine hard packed' gravel and a real pleasure to ride. Sure was better than riding highway 26 which is under construction from Meaford to Thornbury.
We are camping at the Cedar Grove Campground in the edge of Wasaga Beach. It is a 'crappy' little campground full of permanent trailers and they charge 'extra' for showers!!!
