On Friday, the 29th we unplugged the Flying Scotsman from the park in Meaford and headed about 90 miles north to Tobermory, the very tip of the Bruce (yup) Penninsula. We left Meaford because the park was booked for the Labor Day weekend and without a reservation made last Feb, we were evicted. Above is our new park in Tobermory with an Indian rock talisman looking over our travels.
We had planned on setting up camp in Tobermory and then taking the ferry over to Manitoulin Island to enjoy the island for the day. After figuring out the time constraints; whereby we would either be on the island for 4 hours (see nothing) or 12 hours (zzz) because of ferry sailings, and the ferry cost which was about $200 for the day's adventure; we decided not to go over to the island and enjoy the Tobermory environment.
Saturday morning we hit the local organic food joint called the Mermaid for breakfast which had wi-fi so we could find out what was going on in the bustling burg of 3,600.
