Day 12: Arnprior ON - Cottage

KM Driven: ~480km
Location: The Cottage

Well, my adventure has officially come to an end. I didn't do anything too out of the ordinary today. I stopped into some towns to take pictures of the names to surprise an old friend with. Then in typical Julie fashion I missed my cut off and drove in the wrong direction for at least 40 minutes. Sigh. I stopped into a Foodland to pick up some food for tonight and tomorrow morning. I think if the weather stays as it is now I will leave tomorrow. I've considered a few ways to wrap this up and I think I will do the following. Below are some fast fact recap points:

And finally things I've learned:
1) Canada is more beautiful than can be put into words
2) Cruise control is an essential car feature for all road trips, and the e-brake is not
3) French is alive and well through out the entire East Coast. French is not a second language in NB it's a first.
4) Also, Acadian pride is alive and well in the East, especially in NB.

I thought I'd have more inspiring things to say but this is harder to wrap than I thought. Lived it, loved it, and I'd do it again in a heart beat.

Le Fin.
