July 16 - (Wilma writing here) We've been getting some text and email messages reminding us to post to the blog. So in case any of you are still checking, we are still here and back on the road. Today we are on the road to Quebec City, which we will explore tomorrow (Montreal was a very brief, one hour stop today - it's a big country!). Yesterday we explored the nations capital. The temperature was hot, the humidity high, but we enjoyed our tour of Parliament (and it's coolness) including the peace tower. A benefit of making Canada’s parliaments a focus of our trip is that tours are free. It has also been interesting from a historical perspective.

Earlier this week we stayed with friends near Niagara Fall, toured the falls, got to reconnect with friends we had not seen in a long time and taste some early peaches. The kids enjoyed the swimming pool. Have I mentioned that the temperatures are hot and the humidity high?

Oh I forgot to mention, we were in Toronto earlier this week where we did the parliament tour and “climbed” to the top of the CN tower. Enjoy the pictures and we'll try to post regularly. Feel free to text or call us if you want to stay in touch more regularly
