Kingston to Sudbury

The leg from Kingston to Sudbury was beautiful. The poor weather went away and the sun shone all day. Originally, our plan was to stop in North Bay but it was such a nice day that we decided to travel a little longer and made it to Sudbury.

About an hour into the ride, the GPS took us off the main highway and took us north west on a secondary highway. We passed by many beautiful farms which I had to stop and photograph. Saw the usual, cow staring over the fence as you drive by, horses huddled under a leafless tree trying to stay warm. What I wasn't expecting to see was a herd of Buffalo and a pen filled with Llama.


Farther down the road we stopped in a small town called Eganville. Had a wonderful Schnitzel sandwich. Could go for one of those right now - so good.



Beginning to think that we are in the bible belt of Canada. No matter how small the town, we just went through one with a population of 600, there is always a church, usually very nice. In Eganville, we lost count, but there was lots of them. And they where all very beautiful. After lunch we took some time to photograph them.


Eventually we got back to a main highway and made our way to North Bay. Sudbury was calling so we continued drive. Researching hotels from the van with the IPad, we found one with a gym, pool and Italian restaurant.

Perfect.
