Do you think she could fit in a trip to the Pays de la Loire in the first week of June?

Or is that a bit tight travel-wise?

Mrs T was appalled at the preparations for the upcoming winter in Canada, and could not understand what the fuss was about...it seemed quite benign outside...



Covers, snow tires, storage, rubber mats seemed ridiculous to her...

It all seemed quite cosy ...

Until



a quick trip to the US was starting to concern her.....

Winter had begin and even the cosy country stores were of no consolation.....







and the American breakfast was a bit much for her....



A flying visit to Vancouver was at least warmer....



But the weather did not hold..



She liked the airport sculpture..



but freaked when she saw the computer screen...



She would have a few more flights before landing in the land of cactus and desert, where she would spend the last weeks of the year....in Death Valley at a more civilized temperature....

RDMcG is setting a high bar I doubt I can get close to next year.

I'll have to get access to the inner Vatican and get his Popeness to hold Mrs Ted.

Awesome that Mrs Ted is still going on her travels. I rarely go anywhere interesting now that I have two children but I do like to live vicariously through Mrs Ted. One day I hope to go somewhere worthy of her again. Looking back to my Christmas Day with the original TransporTed I can see the quality of photos and locations has really evolved.

Mrs Ted was finding the weather in Canada very chilly, as she was not a Polar bear; as s result she needed a little extra winter attire until she reached California,,and se had a lot of Canadian travelling the coming days. She needed a little relaxation, and the best place was the Teddy Bears' Tea shop around the corner....



She was a bit intimidated by the size of Canadian bears.....

Being more of a Mercedes than a Porsche fan, it was not clear if Mrs T would rate a 2019 Alpina B7




but she said "600BHP is enough for this bear", and give it two paws up....







She had been around a lot of the world....and thought she might have to write a book at the end of her travels....

She did feel a bit more Canadian at this stage, but was looking forward to the warmth of California and the desert.........
