After rushing to get everything ready and the van packed, we left left at 4PM on our way to Midland, ON. Traffic wasn’t bad at all, considering it is a long weekend, but there was an accident on the 400 which closed the highway and resulted a in detour. The detour was scenic, but we were happy when we were back on the highway. And, yes, our first night was at a Walmart. Needless to say, we bought some traditional items – chocolate, Pringles – and a Despicable Me DVD that was in a clearance bin for $5. The traditional T-shirt purchase has been postponed for a future visit.
