It's amazing how quickly and easily you can get packed up without the "help" of the tadpoles. A slow start and a lazy breakfast but we were still hitched and ready to go before midday.Our near neighbours, the ones with HUGE dog, watched us go, marveling I think at the Sienna towing the Airstream. They'd spoken the night before and were amazed that such a combination worked; ah, the miracle of modern science.
Our run home was very good and we managed just on 18 miles to the gallon; it must have been down hill! The road was quiet but we seemed to be plagued by tail gaters, probably because we had the audacity to drive exactly on the speed limit. One fellow didn't realise that were pulling up quite sharply at one point (to allow a left turner) and ran off the road avoiding us. That sounds dramatic but all the roads here have a bit of extra width that allows such things.
There's very little else to say, except that Point Farms, and Goderich, are lovely places. Top marks to the Parks' staff who were personable and helpful, and the whole place was very well maintained. We will be back!
Total mileage 270 Kms (168 miles)
Average consumption 17 litres per 100 Km (16.5 miles per gallon (Imp))
We're getting better!
