OK here goes
We start off with a 5 day tour in Nova Scotia, then fly to Quebec for a week (hope to get out into countryside with a train trip to Baie St Paul and coach trip to Montmorency Falls and beyond)
We then pick up a car and head for Ottawa via Kings Highway (o/night stop) and Mount Tremblant(o/night stop
.
Three nights in Ottawa and then we head for Kingston (via Upper Canada Village) and spend virtually 3 days there, obviously taking a cruise and both Peniteniary Museum and. the Historic Site look interesting. We will leave Kingston mid/late afternoon and follow the Loyalist Pathway using the Glenora Ferry to Picton and overnight in Picton area.
Now it all gets a bit vague - too many choices! The Picton stop is Sunday night 18th September and we need to be in Toronto on Friday 23rd. to drop off the car and have 4 nights in Toronto before flying back to UK. So basically we have 4 nights/5 days to plan.
Are considering driving Cobourg, Port Hope, (apparently pretty towns) Peterborough for o/night stop (lift Lock and think there is a canoe museum there or am I getting muddled) then up to Midland - stopping at Lindsay (pretty Town?) on the way up.
We prefer to keep the driving to about 120-170 miles a day ( 3-3.5 hours in the car) which allows us time to stop if we see anything interesting and have a furttle around OR time to get to the next destination to have plenty of time there. However having said that - occasional it's necessary to hop on the motorways to burn up the miles or when the area is not terribly interesting.
So you now have chapter and verse so any comments/advice would be very helpful..
