Today is the day we leave Niagara and head back to Lisle.
After the three night stop over in Niagara we are heading back across Canada and the States to Chicagoland.
Thankfully the weather was overcast and cool for the projected 8.5hr 450 mile road trip. A quick fill up for gas at the gas station and then we were off.
We tried several times to look for a Subway enroute but more often than not failed to find one, then we spotted a sign and off we went, after several miles of driving through a town we were about to give up when Elle had a brainwave and suggested that Subway were always hear a McDonald’s and true to form there they were. Provisions gathered for breakfast and lunch and we were off again.
Now for the dreaded wait at the immigration point to get back into the US. Again another 45 minutes wait. this time we paid $3.25 as opposed to the $3 on the way out. Stopped to have our passports checked by a very nice immigration officer who asked me what happened with my ESTA renewal? Not that he didn’t already know the answer but I obliged and let him know my wife had made an error and he skilled and said the young lady sat next to me? After what I thought would of been a problem turned out to be OK and we were soon on our way again but this time on US soil.
At some point on the drive all three of my female companions were all asleep or dozing and I was alone to my own thoughts.
Another stop for more gas at a dodgey gas station where I had to go in and pay for the gas. Michele needs to check the credit card as I did not get good vibes from the attendant.
As we got closer to Chicago we got the rush hour traffic and to add to the fun we had some rain too. Then we were back at Julie’s. While the titled unpacked and started on the laundry Elle headed off to see Shiloh the horse and I went I search of a pizza store. A couple of Stella Artois for me and Fanta for Julie and we were all ready for bed. Elle 1st followed shortly after by Julie then myself while Michele finished watching the Good Dr on TV. I’m sure as soon as my head but the pillow I was out.
