Hello Toronto: Summer 2012: Sault Ste. Marie

Yes finally I got our pictures from my Iphone on this laptop.

Juha's school has started and small signs of fall are to be seen. This weekend was a bit rainy, but it supposed to be 26C again at the end of the week. On Friday my cousin and her husband from Finland are coming to visit us for 2 weeks. They will stay with us only during the weekends and travel around Ontario for the rest of the days. Tomorrow we are going to watch the Dutch movie Jackie, which will be shown at the Toronto International Film Festival.

But now I can show you finally some pictures of our trips we made this summer. Let's start with our trip to Sault Ste. Marie, where Amanda, Eric and 2-year-old Jack are living, who are friends of Matt and Renelle.
It was the long weekend of Canada Day when we flew there. It's a city in Western Ontario, with across the river its twin city Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan in the States. The two cities are joined by an international bridge. Matt and Renelle drove from Timmins to the Sault and we all stayed at Amanda and Eric's house. On Saturday the guys went golfing and the girls shopping. Sunday was 1st of July and Canada day. We went to see the fire works across the river. On Monday Matt and Renelle left back home and we went to play golf in the States. A round of golf is much cheaper in the States and actually almost everything is. In the States you usually have to take a cart, but the courses are most of the times much longer as well. We really liked the Sault and are definitely going back there some time.
