London on the Thames…in Ontario

Sunday was primarily a travel day to traverse Michigan from Grand Rapids to Port Huron, cross the border into Canada at Sarnia, and then make our way to London. The border crossing was thankfully a non-event. With the high terrorist alerts because of the Fourth of July holiday, we weren’t certain what we would face, but a normal crawl in a queue of about 20 cars wasn’t bad, and the customs agent deemed us admittable in record time. By 5 p,m we were in London, passing over the winding Thames River any number of times. We drove through the University of Western Ontario, explored the Doentown and then settled into a charming secluded campsite at the Fanshawe Conservation Area, situated on Fanshawe Lake.
