    Nostalgia for me, I’ve done that drive so many times over the years when living north of vermillion bay and then Winnipeg with family in north bay and Newfoundland. Having done this route in a moving truck 2x as well I preferred hwy 11 in the moving truck since it’s less hilly, but not much beats the views on hwy 17.

    I am really enjoying your journey, specially because of your Winter weather. I live in the Caribbean so I don't get to experience any weather change. For me it's summer all year round, so I have loved watching your trip.

So if you guys like the beach, we have ton of that!! We have white sand beaches, some are very clear water beaches, black sand beaches too...

    Wishing you continued safe travels. Northern Ontario is the worst for it's options at Subway. I will say that. I miss the jalapenos too! More recently, I'm not sure what's up with their newer staff, some even forget to ask if you want it toasted, or even are willing to put the bacon cold in your sandwich even if you don't want the whole dang thing toasted. #twitchy

It adds an extra day each way. He is actually up there now but shut down early due to icy road conditions. He is a hazmat tanker driver hauling chemicals to the coal mines up there.

    • @sarahbeukema9592

      And Wawa always has the worst weather along the lake - We're this weird little pocket that carries it's own weather system I think, because of how the south winds come of the lake toward us, yet still having the weather from the north push downward. We always say, you can drive 20 minutes outside of Wawa in any direction, and the weather will definitely be better!
