Sept 1-2, 2021 Relaxing in Montreal
The morning dawned bright and clear first thing in the morning I took Olivia back to the skate park which happened to be a short walk away. After that was more homeschooling and lunch before we returned to the Walmart we had stayed at the night before last. Around the corner from that Walmart was…

August 30-31, 2021 Montreal
It was Monday so we spent most of the day homeschooling. We discovered that Michael’s Art supply stores have decent internet that can be accessed from the parking lot so we pretty much spent the entire day parked in front of Michael’s. In the US our T-Mobile Magenta plan normally gives us 50 GB of…

August 21, 2021 Wineries in Canada?
Olivia wanted to go to the Dinosaur miniature golf course so we went there in the morning before it got too hot. It was a pretty nice mini golf course with a fire erupting volcano, plenty of dinosaur models and some of the holes even had small sand traps which was a bit different. It…

August 20, 2021 Niagara Falls
We got a Niagara Falls Adventure pass for the day which included three attractions and a bus pass at a discounted price of CAD$49 per person. We hopped on the nice air-conditioned bus to our first stop the Whirlpool Areo Car which is a suspended cable car going over a spot where the Niagara River…

August 18-19, 2021 CANADA!
Wednesday morning arrived and we drove to the CVS and got our second Covid test. As luck would have it, we got our results from our first Covid test on Saturday soon after we took our second test, just a day late. Our test results were all negative so that was a good sign for…
