Got back from 12 days in Canada on Saturday morning, washing machine on straight away!!! It's taken till today to get back to normal again!!! A little touch of jetlag!
Had a great time! We were there for friend's surprise birthday party( good excuse to go!!)Thought she was going to have a heart attack when she saw us!! She's an " Porty" ex pat.
We did a bit of travelling while there. Our friends drove us up to Tobermory,near Georgian Bay to catch the ferry to South Baymouth on Manitoulan Island. And from there we drove to Sault St. Marie, stayed overnight and caught a tour train to take us to Agawa Canyon. Then back again and went up to Wawa( Ojibway for wild goose) where we spent our second night. Got some lovely pics which I'll post here

And no visit to Canada would be complete without going to Niagara Falls! We've been going to our friends at Mississauga, near Toronto since 2000 and visit every time we go and never tire of seeing them,awesome!!!
