Day 64 Mon-Coming full circle…

Had a terrible terrible night before finally getting to sleep…the lovely crunchy chicken from last nights dinner truly has knocked the pants off me with an upset gut…slept a little longer than planned…finished the blog…got packed and headed to breaky…it was actually a hit breakfast for a change…Tim and Jess joined us after we had gone to get ours…we’re were nearly the first in the room and then the onslaught arrived….The meat which I felt was odd for bacon…but thought they might have air fired it as was very dry and crisp….but he tells me it’s fake bacon Tim tells me it’s made from Turkey meat…and as it’s the Indian family cooking it guessing they won’t touch pork…also lots if Canadians have this instead of bacon…plus scrambled eggs Tim also tells me is powdered…well at least the Hash Browns were real 🤪🤪🤪…..they had other stuff like cereals, fruit, yogurt and breads with jam etc…but I choose the bacon 🥓 I thought was bacon 🥓 that isn’t bacon 🥓 at all…🤪🤪🤪…it filled the spot we farewelled Tim and Jess and set off for our next destination….John planned a few routes to take us off the main highway…which was great plus the bonus of great old homes, abandoned sheds and homes and the huge bonus was finding a wonderful old railway station at Tatamagouche now as a restaurant, cafe, gift shop and accommodation in old carriages…it was a little piece of paradise to find and explore…the morning tea was excellent…great coffee…great slices and then the exploring of everything around including dress up vintage cloths guessing for pics…what a joy to see it all plus I found a bargain ..an African mother and daughter little statues reduced from $40 to $10… I couldn’t leave them behind they are so gorgeous….now just have to find the space to pack them in…🤔🤔🤔🤔😩😩😩! Might have to send them back with Jess and Tim’s shipping container when they come home…Even the village was quaint and would have been wonderful to wander around…but sadly no time…

We continued on the rest of the day on and off the Hwy pretty much capturing a few interesting sights here and there….bought lunch at what turned out yo be a subway…well it’s food…then arrived back at the Knights Inn Woodstock where I ate the poor man behind the desk last time Witt my very tired bad mood..…I didn’t go in this time thought it safer…in the same building but further down…bonus this time we have a microwave…yeah can do dinner I hope…and we have our open field views to calm the soul…John is getting tireder and tireder….go thing no driving for 2 days while in Montreal….our next stop…then back to Kitchener for a few days then fly home….wow the time has flown but I will be glad when we are done…never thought I would say that about an adventure but this one has been a killer pace…we are too old now…need slower paced trips to smell the roses 🌹…..

Both truly exhausted I used cold meat from lunch, salad 🥗 from last night and bits I could add for a stay in not the best but food we could eat and not go out… looking out across the potato fields is very peaceful…Read more
