Sometimes we just need a little adventure.... like driving to another country for lunch. I live only 3 hours and 20 minutes from the Canadian border, but haven't ever gone unless it was part of a BIG TRIP. Since I do day trips to New York rather frequently, I am amazed that I hadn't thought of this before.
Kudos to Stef for not telling me I was crazy when I first brought it up, and to Julie who is always up for an adventure. The three of us had a rainy but still beautiful drive to the border, then stopped in Stanistead for lunch just over the border. We found a delightful little French restaurant with crepes of all sorts (leeks, fondue, and bacon for me!) and then visited a bakery and grocery store. One drive through Tim Hortons and it was back to the US.
Some people think we were nuts, but honestly, we need to find adventures in the world where we can. For the cost of a couple of tanks of gas we had a delightful journey, good company, and a great story.
