Day 51

Tuesday - Today we had three churches along the way offer us drinks and goodies.  The first was Hope Fellowship in Bowmanville.  There was a large group of them cheering us as we biked into their parking lot.  They had coffee, fruit, and timbits for us as well as a table of assorted candies and little baggies so we could put together a bag of candies for the road.


The second church, Grace CRC in Cobourg had more coffee and a large selection of delicious baked goods.


Last, but not least, Fellowship CRC in Brighton offered us ice cream and oliebollen.  We were really spoiled today.


Just after I left the last church a sudden storm blew in and I got soaked.  When it finally stopped raining, I figured I must be close to the school where we are staying tonight, and sure enough, I crested the hill and there it was.

Today's route.
Distance: 133.6

    Oh man, and you just finished doing all your laundry!

    Nice that all the churches had something different to offer! You guys really have been spoiled... Better prepare yourself for a harsh return to reality soon!

      Well, only what I was wearing on the bike got wet and it all dried pretty quickly when the sun came out again.
