Back in Sioux Lookout. Thank you to all who showed up for the briefings in Windsor. Will be working on the flight out of Windsor vice the bus. Just waiting for quotes. There will be a couple of changes to the itinerary, nothing drastic just a couple of timing issues. Once done I will be sending it out by email. Thanks again to all who showed up. Notes on the briefings to follow.
On the way to Windsor. Nice fresh morning -30 without the wind. Will be in Windsor around 8pm if all goes well. Don't forget the tour briefings. First one is Thursday night 7:30 at the Tilston Armouries. Second will be Sunday 2pm at the Tilston Armouries. I will also have a table at the History Symposium so you can stop by and ask questions.

Ladies and Gentleman: Just a quick note to bring everyone up to speed on what is going on with the tour. We are capping the participants at 70. Presently there are 60 signed up and paid. We will be using two 45 passenger buses. So there will be lots of room and it should be very comfortable. We will be flying from Toronto to Heathrow UK by Air Canada on the evening of 12th August. We will be leaving Amsterdam NL on the morning of the 23rd returning to Toronto. Both flights are direct. By using Air Canada it allows those who have to travel from afar to Toronto to make use of better and easier connections. (Lori at Sioux Travel can help). I will have flight times and numbers at the briefings. I will be in Windsor at the Tilston Armouries 09 Feb 2017 7:30 pm to give a tour update briefing with a follow up on Sunday 12th at 2pm. Same location. I will be manning a table during the History Symposium (10/11 Feb 2017) at the Tilston Armouires to answer any questions and take applications Not to worry! If you can not attend the briefings I will be sending out a detailed report shortly after the second meeting. As always if you have any questions please call me at the number below. Thank you and have a great day!
