On the Road to West Lorne - Day 47
I had a valve pop off of my front tire before starting today. After replacing the tube, we were quickly on our way to West Lorne and Canada. We crossed over into Canada at Marine City, MI on the Blue Water Ferry at mile 20 in the morning. If you have ever driven the 401 from Windsor to Toronto you know how flat this area of Ontario is. About 15 miles after the ferry crossing, an OPP officer pulled up next to me and I thought he yelled "Are you all right" as we were riding along at 20 mph. He actually yelled "Stay to the right" as we were surprised to have 3 trucks hauling massive 120' long windmill arms pass us on our 2 lane road. It was an interesting close up view of the giant arms. After a stop for ice cream at Scoops and Subs and for Canadian money at the Bank of Montreal in Bothwell at mile 56, we headed straight for West Lorne.
