THE END OF THE ROAD

Johno's "Taonga"

Last November the Kingi Family from Rotorua gifted us two beautiful hand carved bone pendants.    Johno's treasure depicts his love of the ocean,  his New Zealand heritage, and gives him protection.   His Taonga kept us safe as we traveled many kilometres throughout Canada, The Maritimes and East Coast of the USA to Boston.

Checking out Lock 8 in Oswego

Calm waters in the marina

Exploring the highways and byways we often stumbled upon most unusual places.  Oswego was a fascinating mixture of maritime and military history.   The Oswego canal provides access for canal barges, schooners and boats of all descriptions to waterways which take them down to Florida.

We spent a wonderful couple of hours with our special friend, Helen Hare who resides in Oakville, Ontario.

Absolutely exhausted after a nightmare ride through the Toronto corridor.

Always another adventure at the end of a road.

Two thumbs up!! A fantastic road trip, but oh the relief to arrive safely at Toronto Airport

Our road trip - Toronto to Toronto, driving over 5,000 km. The letters are just for drawing the map. Over the five weeks we stayed at many more places!!!
