I’m almost home! This has been an amazing trip, and definitely an experience I shall cherish for the rest of my life!
Drove for another 8 hours or so today, with plenty of breaks in between. Arrived at Sault St Marie. I actually have a very funny story to write about my return trip through here. However, I can not write about it yet. I will update this post, or add a new one later. I promise it will be worth the wait. Update: It’s up. I posted about this on 2019-10-02.
I’m also getting quite home sick. Looking forward to taking a hot shower in my own tub, and having a good night sleep in my own bed. Oh, and my car can really use a good scrubbing inside and out too!
Oh, I forgot to write about this yesterday. While I drove through Western Ontario, I encountered a marker where the timezone changed from Central to Eastern time. The modern day timezone system that is used throughout the world is invented by a Scottish Canadian by the name of Sir Sanford Fleming. To acknowledge his contribution to society, the province of Ontario has created a tourist attraction by the highway to commemorate his work. Oddly enough, my cell phone didn’t update the time until almost 2 hour drive east of the marker.
The only reason why I know so much about Sir Sanford Fleming, was because I did a science paper on him during my primary school days.
On a side note, I had the following conversation with my brother over text while driving back home. Don’t worry, I used Android Auto voice dictation.
Me: “How’s baby doing?”
Brother: “Kid is the devil. We are all tired including mom.”
