Great day out with the hubby

My husband and I purchased our first trip as a new way to celebrate our wedding anniversary. It was a very nice and relaxed day that allowed us to discover some new gems in our surrounding community.

Breath of fresh air.

We really enjoyed the variety of activities, sites and the friendly locals with this trip. Although it could have been done in a single day we booked a night in Port Perry in order to experience each of the locations with leisure.

Fun trip

I took my 14-year-old grandson on Taste of the Country (his choice). He was envelope opener and navigator for the day. We had such a fun time together! We plan to do more trips. Highly recommend!!
