Let's see.
Today we hit a remote beach along Lake Huron, gorged on Scottish baked goods (including steak and kidney pie) in the town of Grand Bend, and hit Goderich. The latter claims to be "the prettiest town in Canada"-- not Ontario, all CANADA, which seems a pretty steep height to scale! It most certainly is pretty despite the ravages of a tornado three years ago, and it's nestled alongside the beautiful Maitland River, but still...
Then we covered a lot of farmland marked by what looked like floating puffs of smoke but were actually undulating swarms of winged insects. These led us to the adorable city of Port Owen, where we had an interesting experience at an Indian joint with a very chatty host, failed to get a bottle of wine for our anniversary night, and enjoyed an actual bloody Jacuzzi suite at the Best Western.
On to Tobermory.
