I remember doing this road trip on more than one occasion…good times. But 13 hours to Thunder Bay? Wow…and I thought 14 and a half was pretty good from T.O… Today you should be getting into the maximum 110km/h zones! Have fun and drive sort-of-safe! 🙂 ---

Oh, and FWIW, that first picture is before Wawa 😉 Actually it’s before the park even. 😃 Hope the rectangle province was good to you. And remember, the RCMP don’t think it’s funny when you drift on the Trans-Canada highway, as tempting as the mountains in BC/Alberta may be 😉 ---
