Parry Sound, Georgian Bay


We have been home for over one week and the sun has not shined once. Rain, clouds, and just generally dull.

We had a fabulous time in Canada. Met the nicest, kindest people, had lovely weather, ate far too much and slept a lot!

I got hooked on Dollarama, Tim Hortons Hot Chocolate, Butterfingers, Iced Tea and Dentyne Cinnamon Fire. Went to Walmart (and think Asda is probably nicer, but at least they don't have to wear our gopping green uniforms). Loved going out on the boats, and thought sitting on a front porch was great!

I was fascinated with the Inuckshucks (Excuse spelling) and brought one home with me. Spent far too much in Whiskey Jacks and did not want to come home.

Walmart is indeed a scary place. Did you see any deforemed greeters and get a yellow sticker?

You don't have any ice tea in England at all? i wouldn't know what to order to drink without ice tea. I'm odd because i don't like it sweetened, but if you like sweet ice tea, you need to heat some water and sugar to make a sort of syrup, then add that to the hot tea that's watered down a bit and cool it off with ice. just adding sugar to the tea doesn't work because the sugar never fully melts in.

Sweet (ice) tea is the house wine of the south.

I hate Walmart and don't shop there for any reason.
