Today Scott, Janine and
Alexander decided to take me for a visit to Fergus and Elora which is just
a two hour round trip with stops on the way. Fergus is where the large
Highland Games takes place each year.
We progress through rolling farm land
Hey! Horses! We arrive at Fergus
Highland Avenue
And we've now arrived at Elora
And here is from left to right Janine,
Alexander and Scott :-)
And a British Pub!
And the menu shows British breakfast,
ploughmans lunch, guiness steak pie and lots of other goodies

dog :-) And here we are ready to eat! |
