Home again, home again, jigitty jig.

Well, we're back!  And we managed to cover all 10 provinces, 2 territories, saw an amazing 266 towns and cities, and covered 39, 586 kilometers during our 5 months on the road. You will find listed below everywhere we visited and stayed, in order of our trip, and a few stars beside some of our favorite haunts. It was an incredible journey , and has inspired us, after a few retrofits to the van, to keep traveling whenever possible. ( we already have a few short jaunts planned to finish off our travels in the coming weeks over on Vancouver island. :)   ) Keep your eyes out in the coming months on the blog here as well, as we plan to go through our photos from the trip and pick out our favorites and best, and we'll post a link to them so you may look through them at your leisure.

 So, without further ado.... here is the complete extent of our round trip. . Thankyou for following along with us, and thankyou again to all our friends and family for opening your homes to us during our travels and making us feel so welcome!!!

 With love, Carla, Rob, and Sir Albert Vanagon Mercedes the Third. ( Esquire.)
