Today we started in Bowmansville, ON. We woke up at 7:30, got everything ready and surprisingly got out 10 minutes early. Overall today was a very hilly day, it was torturous. In between the hills, we stopped in some people’s yards to fill up our water bottles, bought groceries, feasted on ice cream, and FINALLY […]
