TRAVEL ADVISORY

Travel looks very different right now. It is restricted or not recommended in many parts of the world. While it may not be safe to travel at the moment, I hope the articles on this site provide inspiration for future travel when it becomes safe to do so again. When you do travel, follow recommended guidelines and adhere to all local restrictions and regulations.

Donna Janke tells travel stories through narrative, photographs and personal reflection. For more information see the About page.

Blue Water Bridge spans the St. Clair River and co

Blue Water Bridge spans the St. Clair River and connects two countries – Canada and the U.S.A. Sarnia, Ontario, Canada, is on one side. Port Huron, Michigan, U.S.A., on the other. Photos of the bridge are everywhere in our Sarnia hotel. It is one of the busiest Ontario international crossings, although traffic is a lot lighter this morning than it was last time I was here in February 2019. The Canada/U.S. border remains closed to all but essential travel. Canada will open up its borders to vaccinated travellers from the U.S. on August 9. The U.S. land border remains closed to Canadians for non-essential travel until at least August 21. ⁠

Back in a hotel room. It 's been a year and a half since our last hotel stay. Except for the masks in public areas and the absence of daily maid service (which is kind of nice knowing no one is going into the room) it feels much the same as before.

For Walk On Stilts Day (there seems to be a day for just about everything!), I'm posting a photo from 7 years ago taken at the Arizona Renaissance Festival.⁠
