We spent a fully packed day roaming Cape Cod National Seashore, its endless beaches, quaint towns, and historic landmarks. But not before... ...the longest 15 mile drive to get from the mainland to Cape Cod. There are 2 bridges over the canal and they don't seem to handle the volume of traffic. Try and keep … Continue reading Cape Cod National Seashore

On Route To Cape Cod – Erie Canalway To Myles Standish Park
We had a wedding to attend in Cape Cod and a friend to visit in Vermont. These two stops and some ocean time in between were the only items on our agenda, so unlike our usual mad dash to nowhere in particular, we took our time and managed to stretch the 10 hour each-way trip … Continue reading On Route To Cape Cod – Erie Canalway To Myles Standish Park
Assateague Part 2
We left you in our last post as we arrived to Assateague Island National Seashore on a beautiful spring evening. We also shared the sad news about Emma's illness, so we'll start with an update before taking you back to Assateague. Emma is still with us. She is such a tough old girl, stoically fighting … Continue reading Assateague Part 2
Assateague Via Intercourse
We have sad news to share with you. This was Emma's last trip. She was diagnosed with advanced, aggressive cancer and although she is still with us, her days are numbered. She is not young and we were expecting this, but it's still hard. We are just so so sad to say goodbye to her. … Continue reading Assateague Via Intercourse
Desert Hopping – Sonora to Chihuahua
Texas was just down the road from our last campsite. We decided to head south before finally heading north towards home. The weather in the mid and northern states was much colder than usual and Texas was our last hope of getting bit of warmth and sunshine. We drove though El Paso and just stopped for … Continue reading Desert Hopping – Sonora to Chihuahua
So What’s the Problem With Dogs?
There are limitations to travelling with dogs, but to us, the biggest of them all is not being able to take our dog on a hike with us. It was shocking for us to find out that most National parks in Canada and the US do not allow dogs on trails. Silly us planned our … Continue reading So What’s the Problem With Dogs?
Gaspé Odyssey: to Land’s End & Back
We just got back from a 9 day trip to the Gaspé Peninsula. It was a whirlwind of a trip as we covered just over 3500 km.
Mini Escape to Sturgeon Bay
We needed to get away at least once before our trip to Gaspé later this month so we headed north to Sturgeon Bay Provincial Park. It's a bit strange to go to a park that would have been tent-camping territory for decades. Do we really need the campervan for this kind of a trip? Probably … Continue reading Mini Escape to Sturgeon Bay
Around the Lake
The following Friday rolls around and we are on our way across the border to New York State. A cousins' reunion near Albany is the perfect excuse to get on the road and squeeze in a mini-adventure. We want to use the campervan as much as we can before taking it on a longer trip … Continue reading Around the Lake
