Another incredible encounter here. Yesterday evening we went out dinning in the best restauran east of Toronto, we didnt know that, but soon were told and found out ourselves. Next to us sat a distinguished lady, just preparing to leave. It seemed a bit difficult for here to get up, so we offered help. "Thanks", she said, "but old people just need time to get moving." Then we started talking and all of a sudden she asks, what kind of music we listen to. A bit surprised, we answered that we love most kinds. Then she opened her purse and pulled out a CD called "I wish you love". The lady was Diane Alcorn, a jazz singer, about 80 years old.
She signed it for us and wished us all the best for our trip! Wonderful, isnt it?Today we were stopped by storm Irene! The forecast was mixed, predicting rain for the evening. But while on the road we soon had some light rain and saw thick black clouds ahead and felt the wind gusting up. So we decided to seek shelter in a wonderful B&B which just happened to be on the way: Red Roof,have a look at the picture gallery. http://www.roudendaachbedandbreakfast.com/index.html
It was the first B&B with solar energy, organic gardening and soon we were sitting on the terrasse and watched the wind an rain coming in. It wasnt as bad as feared, but still we were glad to be off the road. Because the B&B is very far from any place to eat, Josie and Jim invited us to dinner with them and their 4 dogs. And it ended very late, Jim on the guitare, the rest of us, including the dogs, singing!
Josie is a special woman, she is now 57 and from Luxenburg. Two years ago she decided to move here on the Atlantic coast, build a B&B, then she met Jim and now the two live here from the B&B and seem very happy.
Not to mention, Katrin´s bike broke down again, this time it´s the batterie charger!
