We are home and I am tired so I’ll be super brief tonight. Basically the ride from Mansfield to Toronto is something we’ve all done a few times before so much of the ride is well worn for us. We did follow the official route a little in the morning with some new bits. Super…
Day 6 – to Mansfield
We rolled out of the campground at about 9:45 and headed to the main strip of Collingwood for second breakfast. The place we were looking for was closed but they recommended another the corner. Breakfast poutine is a new favorite of mine – poached eggs, home fries, sausage, bacon, onion, cheese and hollandaise. The waitress…
