Guess what Mary did in Canada today?
We got on the roar around 9am and went North to Sault St. Marie, MI and visited the SOO locks on the St. Mary River between Lake Superior and Lake Huron. After the tour and visits to a couple of souvineer shops, we headed across the bridge to see if the Canadian version was any better - just more of the same but we did enjoy a walk on the riverfront boardwalk, a walk through the Finland festival and a really good lunch at Vincenzo's on Queen Street where we had the Labatt Blue along with our Italian lunch (It seems that a lot of Italians settled in Sault St. Marie, Ontario and some of them opened restaurants).
We then traveled back to the USA (1 1/2 hours to get across the bridge and through customs vs. 15 minutes to get into Canada). That's how the government is going to keep the bad folks out - boring them to death in line! I'm glad my tank was full and my bladder empty before starting back to the US, it is probably a crime to pee off that bridge - LOL.
The Saint Mary river on the Canadian side is really swift and the wind was blowing like crazy. Check out the video below for an idea.
