The rest of the rest of day three







We got to drive on one of those roads that look like you're in a tunnel only this time it was a tunnel of trees. Then we drove on another that could be best described as a paved bike path. So narrow that if you meet another car, one of you has to back up until you find a spot to pull over. Even a jogger had to move off into the grass to let us pass.








I found this unbelievable: there are no automated gates at the train crossings but rather a man who opens and closes it!! Makes the train crossing take a bit longer to say the least but also quite entertaining to me. Here's a pic of him walking away after a job well done!






And finally, let me talk about food. This is a divinely delightful cherry pie from marks and sparks. We also had an apple one. Emma picked them out. I'll spare you the extensive descriptions but will suffice to say the apple pie was pleasantly tart and firm while the cherry pie was most definitely NOT made from canned pie filling, and if it was, we need some of those cans in Canada.
Got some big fat crumpets too that I'll be enjoying for breakfast.
