Come join us for an epic Canada Road Trip as we hop in a vehicle with Togo and Audrey's parents traveling out east to visit the Maritimes Provinces. After a highly successful road trip in Canada last fall to visit British Columbia and Alberta to see the Canadian Rockies, we decided to reunite the travel squad of Audrey's Mom and Dad and Togo the German Shepherd to see Atlantic Canada.

The first day we packed all of our suitcases in the rental vehicle, a spacious Ford Flex, pulling out of Brampton, Ontario early in the morning. The first day we drove a bit further than Montreal crossing provinces from Ontario to Quebec. We made time to visit Audrey's Uncle who lives in Montreal before arriving in our cabin for the evening. Unfortunately, the mosquitos were so bad that we spent our initial moments swatting them as opposed to relaxing. After getting rid of most of them we cracked upon a bottle of wine to celebrate the first day of driving on this road trip. It was a busy day since we had to bypass the two biggest cities in Canada (Toronto and Montreal) and traffic at times was hectic.

The second day involved a little bit less driving as we headed towards the maritime provinces of New Brunswick. Once we bypassed Quebec City the highways really cleared and sections were almost bare. We noticed as we crossed into New Brunswick that we could see more forests, mountains and signs warning us about Moose crossings.

One of the highlights was stopping in Hartland to visit the longest covered bridge in the world. Upon arriving in Fredericton it felt like coming home since my Mom and Dad live there. This is just the start of our road trip in Canada as we plan to visit New Brunswick, Cape Breton (Nova Scotia) and Prince Edward Island covering all of the Maritimes. We hope you'll join us for the next episode from New Brunswick!
