10.1.13 Tuesday Halifax


 

Raccoon smorgasbord
Around 3:00AM we had intruders.  Linda heard a crash out in the screen room. “Somebody’s out there. “ Two fat raccoons dumped over the food box.  Linda figured since the campground is in an area of the suburbs there shouldn’t be any critters.  But these two pulled one over on us.   They didn’t seem to mind the rain at all and enjoyed two whole loaves of bread (the ones bought at Charlie's yesterday) , several packages of Soup Starter, opened all the Raman Noodles and apparently were not impressed with the Swiss Miss hot chocolate mix that we found floating on top the mud. With no bread except a piece the size of a postage stamp, we decided Tim Horton’s is in order.
Not quite enough for breakfast

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Tim Horton’s is the Canadian version of Dunkin Doughnuts.  They serve some good breakfast sandwiches and have free WIFI. So I worked on the blog until the battery went dead on the laptop. We were there long enough we got hungry again and tried more coffee and doughnuts..

 

Working in the tent
The weather forecast says rain until midnight.  It has been a rather steady rain with occasional downpours.  I’m really behind on the blog so I continued inside the tent with the rain dropping on my head about once every ten minutes.  Linda is holed up in the van working on puzzle books.

 
 
In the late afternoon I was thinking about food (nothing unusual there) and specifically pizza.  I looked at Linda and said “You know what we haven’t had since we started this trip?” In a blink she shouted “Pizza!”  It’s strange how we think the same thing so many times.  One time years ago. I said “Do you know what I was thinking?” and Linda said “Dairy Queen” our son just looked at us and said “You two are scary”. So we looked up pizza on the GPS and soon we were sitting in the warmth of a Pizza Hut. Hey, at least it ain't raining in here!

 

Other than that ...Not a whole lot of excitement today.
