"But for a teensy weensy ribbon of terra firma you would be completely
surrounded by water. Aint that so?"


I've stated many times that I live on a peninsula..attached to a larger peninsula..that is itself attached to a bigger peninsula again. (province). Roughly 18 miles keeps us from being separated from the common continentals.
You can think of us as a bit of Paradise at the end of the road.

You shouldn't use big, obscure words like peninsula or province with
morons like FlaJim.

One of the Disney ships makes a Canadian Coastline Cruise leaving from New York with
stops at St. John and Halifax. But, almost $6000 for the two of us for only five days
seems a bit excessive. I'm thinking it would be much cheaper and about as much fun to
RV it up there. It's only about 1150 miles - two days travel time, staying off the
toll roads. Wonder if there's a ferry from St. John's to Halifax. Could be fun.

For me, sure. But I could never convince Sandy to ride on the back for 2300 miles!

To bad you can't haul your bike on back of the rv. The Cabot Trail is claimed to be one of the premier motorcycle destinations in North America

If I had a $250000 motorhome, I could put a lift and platform to haul the bike on the
back of it. The trailer frame isn't strong enough to hang 550lbs off the ass end. A
friend and I took our motorcycles from here up to Acadia National Park, with all the
stops in-between. Took about two weeks. Great trip, except for having to completely
unpack everything and lay it all out for Canadian customs when we went to visit
Montreal.

The fifth wheel we had was a Keystone Raptor "toy hauler". Had a 12'
garage in the back with a twin loft bed above it. Came with tracks
built in the floor and walls for strapping one or two full sized
motorcycles, a golf cart or other personal transportation vehicle.

Besides, Tim, if we do our Kentucky trip I'll have done my Guzzi-ing for the summer.
