When Lee and Karen Duquette were in Port Huron, they looked across the river and saw Point Edward, Ontario, Canada. So they decided to take a day trip across the Blue Water Bridge into Canada. Each of the three lanes on the Blue Water Bridge dictated which lane cars, trucks and special vehicles must be in. Crossing the border was not an issue for the two RV Gypsies. Traffic went quickly and it was hassle-free. |
