Wheeling though Canada

       What up AESOPers! This is Henry (Squam Islands with Julie) and Colin (Presies with Lauren) checking in from the ferry between Saint John, Newfoundland and Digby, Nova Scotia. This is day 19 of a bike tour that began in Ayer, MA. We had to post up in Saint John for a few days waiting for a part to arrive and have really enjoyed the city. So far on the trip we've been swimming almost every day in lakes, rivers, and most recently the Bay of Fundy. Been seeing some sick wildlife all over (bald eagle count is at 4) and met some cool people along the way. A highlight: yesterday we were guests at a Russian barbecue/homemade sauna at a remote Canadian Lake. Intense!! We've been putting away the miles during the day and camping/ whipping up some creative meals on the cheap at night. Life on the road is treating us well, but were pumped to get on back to the Lew! See you all at Bates!

A shot of us from Nashua bike trail in Ayer. Colin left and Henry right after getting loaded up and heading out for the day.
Here's Big Hen sitting between Phoebe and Black Beauty enjoying a Nutty Bar during a break. Yeah we named our bikes what of it??   
Here is Colin on the ferry. Representing Canada just before our first whale sighting!
