Friday 20 December

It’s wet this morning, only 1º  but when it’s wet it feels colder. The rain is very light but enough to start to melt the snow. Up till now the snow has been too light and dry and fluffy to make a snowman but if there’s time, we’re going to try to make one in a little while; then we plan to have lunch and head off on our trip. 

In this country in winter, people carry a survival kit in their trunk (sorry, boot!). Weather can move in or change quickly and highways can be shut. If you’re out there, you need to be able to keep warm, watered and if necessary fed. We will also take an overnight bag in case the roads are iced over when it’s time to leave Sarnia tonight.
