Then we saw a wonderful house for sale, an old little farm, which land down to the lake, 48 acres, on a quiet road, just the ideal place for our future as B&B keepers. We called the agent who to our luck just had time and even the owners were there and happy to meet us. So we spend the afternoon visiting the house and ended up being invited for tea and a interesting discussion. The owners are very interesting people, with 55 they asked themselves whether to continue working in Toronto like crazy or to move out here on the countryside. Both were very successful in their field and it was not an easy decision. Finally they choose the quiet live and had 17 wonderful years fixing this little farm. But now, it has become too large for them, so they sell it. We didn´t buy it, but we left with a bit of sadness!
Katrin & Frank are crossing Canada and the USA by bicycle. We started in St. John´s (Canada) the most eastern town on the North American Continent and are biking to Los Angeles in the USA. We started August 10th and hope to be in LA in December 2011. The journey is a longtime dream of Frank and we think the best way to see a country. Katrin is riding a Specialized bicycle with electro support, Bionix, made in Canada. Frank rides a Cannondale bike, made in the US.
