Our Key West trip was great ... though, more relaxation as opposed to exploration. As soon as we got back in March, I started planning next summer's trip. This is going to be all about exploration, even more than last year's venture to the glaciers in the Canadian Rockies. We're going to Atlantic Canada ... New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and trying to work in Newfoundland and Labrador.
It's a very difficult trip to plan because it's all new to us. There's not a lot of places I've even heard about, so a great deal of time has been spent on research. But it shaping up to be fascinating. I've learned so much about the Maritimes already, I can wait to set out. Here's the early preliminary itinerary.
Washington DC to Bar Harbor - 715 miles
- will allow two overnights on the way
Bar Harbor to St. Andrews, New Brunswick - 145 miles
To Truro, Nova Scotia - 262 miles
To Annapolis Royal - 155 miles
To Yarmouth - 84 miles
To Halifax - 123 miles
To Louisbourg - 268 miles
To Pictou - 183 miles
Ferry to Prince Edward Island
To Charlottetown - 38 miles
To Cavendish - 25 miles
Drive 564 miles to Quebec City
- one overnight stop along the way
Quebec City to Montreal -157 miles
To Lake George - 162 miles
To Syracuse - 175 miles
To Niagra Falls - 162 miles
Still figuring it out after that. Have planned most places we will stay and allocated the length of stay. Have found some terrific sounding RV resorts. Will post when everything is fine tuned.
