This will be our last day in the Canadian Shield as we turn south towards Ottawa. The highway has parts that are in great shape and other parts the opposite with bumps that send the dishes rattling the cupboard!!
The scenery is similar to Lake of the Woods, with heavy forest and massive rocks dotted with beautiful blue lakes.
A number of people were surprised that we chose to drive this northern route, but with a full week at our disposal we’ve thoroughly enjoyed this resource rich part of Canada.
French is a delightful language to hear spoken and our feeble attempts have been appreciated. We particularly enjoy the sound effects that are woven into everyday conversation. Even the road signs mimic these sound effects!
