h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I know you aren't visiting Vancouver Island but I thought you might like to see where I'm from originally:

This is the stop over you might want to make, the city of Osooyos is fun- but it is out of the way of the direct route:

No matter which way you go you will be near a winery or two:

This is more on Vancouver with some links about accomodation, tourism things, etc.:

Howdy cl zoomer.

Hope you won't mind, but the title of your thread here encouarges me to add a few more links to sites extolling some of Canada' virtues which our rolling travellers might enjoy.

Algonquin National Park has been discussed in a couple of threads as a highlight to enjoy between Montreal and Owen Sound:

Owen Sound in the Bruce Peninsula area:

And of course round Montreal:

And Ottawa (silicon valley of the north):

That oughta keep them busy for a while.
And if it raises any questions or interest I'd be glad to help find further info.

Wow! Thanks!

I am going to add another couple copied from the Colorado thread.

http://www.durangotrain.com/ (Durango Train)

It would be good to have all the links gathered in one place for the next planning-fest.

Ben has said she loves deserts and I just had a look at one of cl zoomers links :

http://www.desert.org/

That's a new one on me!
But I'll bet Ben will love it.
Nice one!

jwf- those are all very nice, but aren't they all in the *east*?

Can't be all that spectacular then, can they?

Next we will be bookmarking the site for the world's second biggest ball of twine or Biggar, Sask.

Forgot the most important!

A new Canadian form of duelling! Websites at dawn!

Thanks for these guys. I appreciate it a great deal.

*also taking advantage of the title of the thread*

Here's Sutter's Fort, one of the 2 places that I suggestd elsewhere as being something in Sacramento that I should likely get around to checking out, and having you 2 visit's a good excuse... (I even know where it is, because I pass it on the way to w*rk everyday...) http://www.parks.ca.gov/default.asp?page_id=485

And the Crocker Art Museum, which is a place i'm told I must go (plus it, unlike the fort, would be air-conditioned...) http://www.crockerartmuseum.org/
