Collingwood!

I'm extremely impressed with whoever came up with the design of Airport road.......it's the straightest road ever and stretches to the horizon which in Canada is for miles. But it is also a bit like a rollercoaster with sudden drops and turns........brilliant!!
It took us a good hour and a half to reach Stayner, a small town just before Collingwood but which hiad what we were now desperate for...Tim Hortens. By now it was around 5pm but of course our internal clocks were 5 hours ahead on UK time. It had been a long day since setting off in torrential rain to the airport near our home, then the 7 hour flight and the drive so we were hungry. I'd already decided on soup and hot chocolate to take to the house and have there so we were soon back on the road and entering Collingwood.
It is a great little town right on the edge of the Georgian Bay...well actually I think its on the Nottawasaga Bay which I've no doubt spelt wrong!!
