It’s been a while since I posted but we’ve really been quite busy – on our last day in St John’s we had to go to the barber as it was a very nice traditional one, so Simon had his hair cut there. We also visited the Pharmacy museum, I’ve taken a few pictures. Naturally Pauline and Simon were most interested. We had a nice flight back to Montreal and stayed in a lovely B & B in the centre of the city,  we went out among the elegant Montrealers for  a nice traditional French four course meal for $25 each at a steak house. Next morning we picked up a 2009 Ford Focus from Hertz and blessing Homer (the GPS) we drove to Peterborough to visit Pauline’s colleague Peri from Trent University. Peri could not have been more hospitable, she gave us a meal at her charming two storey brick house surrounded by maple trees,  showed us around the university which is in a delightful setting surrounded by forest, and Peri and her husband drove us to a winery about 45 minutes into the country where we had an admirable meal and some excellent wine. Thanks very much for your hospitality Peri, we really loved our stay in Peterborough! Here’s a few pictures.
