Oct 19-21 - Windsor






We decided to skip Toronto for this trip as it became too difficult to get to the downtown area from where we were camping, however we did get a peek of the Toronto tower in passing. We drove west to Windsor passing Mississagua, Milton, Cambridge, Kitchener, Woodstock, London and Chatham. So many big cities so close together. Lots of huge industrial parks (manufacturing, distributing, automotive, engineering, etc). The countryside is much like the prairies -massive acreages of corn and soya beans -not harvested yet.



We checked into the Wildwood Golf & RV Resort at McGregor (Windsor) and enjoyed 2 days of glorious sunshine and 19C. Golf was reasonable at $50 for 2 with cart. Lovely course.



Drove into Windsor to see the massive car manufacturing and assembly plants and the Hiram Walker Distillery. We could see the US flags flying across the river in Detroit, only a bridge away.
