Today we drove from Wa Wa to Rossport (our whole time in Canada was spent in Ontario) where
we checked into the Rossport Inn, a quaint inn that sits along the shore of Lake Superior with
just enough room for the TransCanada railway to pass between, which it does on a regular
basis all night long! However, the time spent here was very relaxing as there is absolutely
nothing to do, but relax! We had a great dinner at the inn, possibly the best on the whole trip.
Prior to arriving in Rossport, we managed to take in much scenery along the way and make a
few stops, the first was to gander at the first water fall of the day. Then, as we have been
driving along, we have been seeing many piles of rocks that have been stacked along side of
the road, at first we thought maybe Bubbs was just having fun and letting us know that he was
along for the ride. But then we asked at a tourist booth and found out that there is some
history behind them, at this point I would go into detail about that history, but I have misplaced
the brochure about it and will need to update with this info later. Regardless, it has to do with
erecting a memorial for someone in their spirit, as a way of honoring them, it is an Indian
tradition that has been picked up by others. So....we decided to make one for Little Al, you can
the pictures of it below.
Then we were off to check out yet one more water fall before heading into Rossport. Overall it
was a nice day with many stops along the way so the riding did not seem so long.
