Good folks in Ottawa

Serge and Helen, Ottawa

No one could ask for better hosts. Serge met us in a mall parking lot as we were getting ready to settle into another day of work from a Starbucks.

We talked VW's, many he had owned during his life, and we had mentioned where we were camping. A small family campsite that marketed itself as a "Good Sam" Campground. Honestly the site was far from something that we'd recommend. KOA's, so far on our journey, have consistently been the cleanest sites with the most features.

It was the next day that Serge popped into the campgrounds with his wife Helen and invited us for dinner. A wonderful cook, Serge had prepared homemade Lasagna and we dined, shared some wine and had a very interesting conversation. Spending the night we headed off to the VW Show in Embrun early in the morning.
