Eastward Bound, continues


Our first day on the road leaving Manitoba did see us putting in about 9 hours on the road.  We made it as far as English River, ON. We stayed at a lovely little Inn that was right on the river and very nice hotel owners, who turned out to be very pet friendly!  Gotta love people like that!

I did manage to get some pictures while I was driving.  Yes, I was taking photos while driving so no comments about the quality!  LOL!
We're in Ontario now, OneX
And yes, OneX was paying attention...
Yes mom, I'm paying attention!
I have to say, the dogs and cats traveled extremely well.  Once we picked up the moving truck in MB, hubby took one of the dogs for company leaving me with the other 5 and the 2 cats.  It worked very well actually.  Although, I think the animals that got to ride with me had a better ride in my truck than those in the moving truck.  I think the moving truck had square wheels and no shocks; it was apparently a very rough ride!

After leaving English River, ON we headed on our way.  Around Thunder Bay, we got our first glimpse of Lake Superior.  It is truly hard to fathom how immensely huge that lake is!  Without knowing the location, you could almost think that you were looking at the Pacific Ocean...

Our little convoy really confused people:  my truck with the MB plates, the U-Haul truck from Florida with the U-Haul trailer from Arizona!  Believe me, OPP tailed us and ran the plates A LOT!
My constant view:  DH's hind end!
Dashboard buddies!
