We've Arrived!!

We made it to Montreal, somewhat surprisingly, but we are quite excited about it.

We arrived in Nova Scotia at 2pm, and after stopping to get gas and walk the dogs down a random dirt road, oh and stopping to take photos at the Simpson's Farm, we drove straight to New Brunswick where we pulled over and slept. Then we got up this morning, found coffee, gas, and somewhere to walk the dogs and drove to Montreal. We stopped to see (and drive across and back) the longest covered bridge in the World.

We have been stopping about every 170km, or every two hours to get gas and give the van a rest. This has been working well for both dogs and kids, although now that we have discovered that the gas tank is closer to 60 litres, not 40 (which our gas gage would lead us to believe) we may drive for longer stretches. We have also discovered that our speedometer is 5km over, so we need to dig out our back license plate that says "yes we're slow, but your behind us" for those hills where our speedometer barely hits 80km.

Tomorrow we are going to head towards Ottawa and Sault Ste Marie, but I don't think we will get that far.

We are staying at Blake and Allison's tonight. Thanks Allison!!
