The end of this trip... I am already thinking about the next one!!!

IT IS OVER!

10 cities in 26 days!
Wow, it was great.
We saw amazing things, met wonderful people and learned a heck of a lot!
My parents loved it and we all got here safe and happy.



It was very nice to see Mike and our new home. Travelling is wonderful, but coming home is even better!

After resting Friday night, we went straight to Midland on Saturday morning to Mike's mom and step dad's house... to rest a bit more.

We were really destroyed because of the seven hours time difference, but we could relaxed up there.

Mike and Mark did a bit of work, piling up wood for the winter.

Oh Canada!

It was already a bit cold, but a walk on the beach before everything freezes is a must!

Here the beautiful ladies in Georgian Bay: Vera, Marggie (my mom in law) and I.

Sammy (the dog) could not have missed it!

For those who don't know, this is an Inukshuk.

FROM WIKIPEDIA:

An inuksuk (plural inuksuit) is a man-made stone landmark or cairn used by the Inuit, Inupiat, Kalaallit, Yupik, and other peoples of the Arctic region of North America, from Alaska to Greenland. This region, above the Arctic Circle, is dominated by the tundra biome, containing areas with few natural landmarks.
The inuksuk may have been used for navigation, as a point of reference, a marker for hunting grounds, or as a food cache. The Inupiat in northern Alaska used inuksuit to assist in the herding of caribou into contained areas for slaughter. Inuksuit vary in shape and size, with deep roots in the Inuit culture.

This is my favourite time of the year in Canada: the fall. The leaves are falling and the colors are amazing. Driving up north through this mosaic of colors is absolutely beautiful and comforting at the same time. I feel finally home!

Over dinner we talked about what the new trip should be. That evening we agreed that it would be a family vacation in a cruise along the Mediterranean.

The next morning we were making plans to go to Africa and work as volunteers in a village somewhere.

Oh well, I probably already have hundreds of possible destinations going through my mind right now.

I know for sure that we are heading to Boston in November for Mike's birthday, so I will blog again. :)

Meantime, you guys have a break, while I face reality and look for a job.

It has been a lot of fun doing this and thank you all for the support! I hope to get on the go soon to tell you more about it! Take care.

Gabi On The Go!
