There is one thing every single one of us CAN do t There is one thing every single one of us CAN do to show we care about this planet: NOT LITTER. As is our habit, we picked up trash at a local conservation area this afternoon. Water bottle caps, gun shot casings, plastic tampon applicators, bottles, aluminum cans, ribbons, rope, cigarillo tips, styrofoam, baggies, wrappers, gloves, plant containers, cigarette butts, straws, coffee cup lids, stir sticks, and toilet paper (so much toilet paper!). Some of these things wash up on the beach but some is clearly left behind even though there are so many garbage receptacles nearby. Please remember to Leave Only Footprints! #earthday #everydayisearthday #eavenotrace #leaveonlyfootprints #lakeerie #holidaybeachconservationarea #yqg

This is officially the longest we have been in one This is officially the longest we have been in one place since 2012. We miss travelling. Who doesn’t?! And so we decided yesterday that we would list 5, maybe 10, of our favourite places we’ve travelled in the van since 2014. Turns out that was a much more difficult task than we thought it would be. We’re currently at 40! 

One of our very favourite places was Newfoundland. All of it! After a cursory glance at available photos on the phone we came across these three. Not the beautiful landscape pics or incredible people we met along the way that made the experience exceptional but these three photos. Gee did we laugh. Something we did a lot of as we travelled around that big old rock. We LOVE Newfoundland. #newfoundland #favouriteplaceswevevisited #top40 #vantravel #vanlifediaries #canada #portauxbasques
It really came down to luck that we met up with ou It really came down to luck that we met up with our friends yesterday. Because as of last night the stay at home order here in Ontario became much more strict. We cannot spend time, even in the outdoors, with anyone outside of our own household. 

And so... an afternoon of beach-combing, marsh-appreciation, admiration for the beauty of new spring growth and conversation with a trio of truly delightful humans will have to sustain us until at least May 20th.

Travelling in a van has a lot of pluses including Travelling in a van has a lot of pluses including when the weather happens to be a little too windy, a little too chilly, raining, snowing or when there are bothersome mosquitoes or wasps. You can pretend you’re at an old fashioned drive-in diner (lunch delivered to your open window by your loving partner) that happens to have a view of a pretty harbour. We tell you where to find those special spots in our Guide to the Magdalen Islands.

Excerpt from Good Guides - Folksblogen’s Guide t Excerpt from Good Guides - Folksblogen’s Guide to the Magdalen Islands:

We’ve decided that we love pre-sunrise and pre and post sunset best. That’s where the real magic happens in our eyes. Travelling by Campervan there’s no reason to ever miss either.

Excerpt from Good Guides - Folksblogen’s Guide t Excerpt from Good Guides - Folksblogen’s Guide to the Magdalen Islands: 
It was only our first day, and we were already worrying about having to leave too soon. From the red, sandstone cliffs and beaches, the multi-coloured houses sprinkled across the landscape, the lobster poutine, to what become our favourite patisserie, we were smitten.
