First Day

Where Are We Today
Wapakoneta, Ohio 

Today’s journey took us from CanAm RV in London Ontario to Wapakoneta Ohio via the 401 & I-75.

As we came off the Ambassador Bridge, we were directed to the transport processing area, this was a first for us. After showing our passports and answering a couple of questions, we were asked to pull ahead and stop so the Customs Officer go inside the trailer. I had to give him the trailer and truck keys and stay in the truck. He was in there for about 5 minutes, didn’t open the slides so don’t know what he all looked at, came out, locked the door, returned the steps to the travel position and gave us back our passports and keys.

With a good-bye and have a nice day we were “on our way.”

It was a pleasant day, clear blue sunny skies. There is road construction for probably 20 miles closer to the Michigan/Ohio State line. Slow crawl to stop and go.

We are parked for the night at the Walmart. Thanks for stopping by, until tomorrow, take care. Check out Patsy’s Blog and if you are reading this on your phone, go to the web version to see it better.

  3. Haha.. I felt the same a couple of years ago when that happened, it was however a painless check for us, they entered the rig, two women officers, maybe a minute inside, then beckoned me out to lock up. No fare to cross in the truck lanes. Thanks for the heads up about the construction. Safe travels.
