Again, waking up to the smell of cooking bacon is THE best and only way to wake up in the morning – I love it, dont know who wouldnt, unless of course your Jewish or Muslim...
Bens Dad Steve cooked up a very good brekky for all of us and it took me till 11 to get ready to leave. The reason why it took me so long is because several days ago a few eggs broke in one of my pannier bags and 'chicken period' leaked everywhere and now there was a foul odour emitting badly around my bike. I washed it thoroughly but still there is a residual smell emmitting.
Finally after several days without any sun it came out, it was a beautiful day although a little chilly but perfect for cycling.
I cruised all day not pushing myself because my Achilles tendon on my right foot was having an issue with all this peddling, its not painful ache so ill be fine.
I stopped where I could to take some pictures of the random things I passed as I now have a nice DSLR camera that I need to get used to and to improve my photography skills.
Although I have already cycled into Quebec I followed the Ontario side of the river to Hawksbury to cross the bridge there to make my way to Montreal.
I have less than 100km to get there so tomorrow, like today, I am going to take my time and enjoy the cycle. I finished up the day with an all-you-can-eat chinese buffet but because I was stuffing my face full of food making the $15 worth my while I disappointingly missed the sunset over the bridge where I wanted to take a bunch of pics.
Ben’s Sisters Dog, part Labrador, part German Sheppard and part pit-bull – what a great combination

Pictures of stuff and Me along the way
Messing with the camera - adjusting the zoom while the camera takes the exposure
Lack of a sunset in Quebec
My first HDR with my new camera – i still have a lot to learn.
