The two RV Gypsies took a day trip to Point Edward, Ontario, Canada June 13, 2013 |
|
When the two RV Gypsies 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. |
|
The two RV Gypsies stopped to get a hot dog at the Chip Wagon. This was their lunch time view. |
|
While eating lunch, the two RV Gypsies heard a very loud horn, and they saw a one-car train on the USA side of the river. |
|
Karen Duquette was still eating, but Lee Duquette was finished, so he went across the street to see what the small monument was about. Lee did not see any plaque about this monument. But it had multiple faces at the top of it. |
|
Then Lee Duquette noticed a big barge coming in and decided to photograph it. |

Karen Duquette photographed the waves breaking over the seawall. It was a cool, windy day, temperature about 60 degrees Fahrenheit. |
|
The two RV Gypsies saw a sign that encouraged them to go feed the fish. So they did. |

The two RV Gypsies saw a cute pink and purple RV with the sign "Pink Lloyd" on the side of it. They also noticed that there was a man painting the shutters on the house pink. |
|
The two RV Gypsies took a drive by the local casino, but they did not go inside the casino. |

Lee Duquette walked on the dock to get another view of the ships. |
