FP update 7/9 Canadian Border Crossing

Well, another interesting Canadian border crossing. We left the US from Port Huron over the bridge into Port Edward. That was fun due to all the construction going on (see pics). Got to the Canadian Customs booths and realized that I might not fit through their inspection lane. I pulled up just in front of the booth and realized that I was going to clip one (or both) of my mirrors. I got out of the rig to check clearances and suddenly, the border agent started yelling at me to get in the RV. I asked if I could take a moment to size up my entry and he then yelled NO! I said to him that I only have about an inch on each side and didn’t want to damage the rig. Once again, he yelled to get back in the RV. I readjusted my position very slowly and made it to his booth. I guess I pissed him off since he was just plain rude during our brief interaction. I was free to go, so I just inched forward to leave and then bam…scratched the driver’s side mirror on his booth.

Once again, another great experience with Canadian Customs….ugh.Read more
