May 9 to May 16- Week 1-Home in Toronto & Vicinity

Around noon on May 9th we crossed into Canada at Fort Erie- the Peace bridge. At the Canadian border we had to register our car and declare all wordly goods we were bringing with us- only what was stuffed into our little Honda- LOL!!
Our first stop for a few days was at Uwe's brother's house in Burlington- just west of Toronto.

His brother's family backyard & pool- notice trees are barely green at that time.

Inside of house- lovely dining room

Back of house from yard- a very nice large house- lot's of room for guests!

And diner with the whole family

After a couple of days spent trying to get our Canadian drivers' licences, and getting our car registered, we move on the Uwe's father's house in Broklin- just east of Toronto- no end to family we can stay with!
This is a picture of their living room

And here are Dad & Pat- our gracious hosts & their kitty, Simon
 We spent the day painting his back deck- had company coming from Germany- plus we had to work off our room & board- LOL

The next weekend we stayed at our good friends, Kathy & Igor in Ajax- again east of Toronto. We had a great diner cooked to perfection and another couple of their friends joined us .

And of course, they also have kitties!
