Today a very interesting and relaxing visit to Upper Canada Village. It is made of buildings rescued from around the area when they were building the St. Lawrence Seaway back in the fifties. It is a working village musium. The sawmill is water powered and the wood they cut is used in the village for repairs to the houses and barns.
The Blacksmith makes all the ironwork needed and fancy stuff to sell in the gift shop.
Lovely old log cabin
This is the village store, it used to be behind the fancy house which is Chrisler Hall. the village is built on Christler Farm site of a big battle during the 1812 war.
We leave here Wednesday morning for Kingston our next stopover.
