First leg (second leg below, same post) from Brantford CYFD to Kingston CYGK. While I was planning to start this tour for a while, I jumped in in the evening to fly to Kingston and ‘start’ from there. I had already explored my local area extensively.

It started by flying direct to Hamilton, lovely during the day, very nice in the evening as well
There is an amazing old lift bridge at the entrance to the bay, I’ve cycled over it plenty times
Onwards past Missisauga
And Toronto
Fun to land at the city airport.
Then it got too dark for pictures, landed in Kingston at nightfall.

Departing from Kingston
Following the St Lawrence river North to Ottawa
Ogdensburg along the St Lawrence river
Ottawa, the capital of Canada
The city turned out pretty well in FS 2020
The weather was pretty moody, fun to fly low over the river
Hawkesburg through a gap in the clouds
I flew higher here to witness the majestic clouds
Down below, a rainy day in Montreal
On to Quebec, the weather started to clear up a little bit
Providing a beautiful rainbow
Quebec city
Dramatic New Brunswick
Approaching Saint Johns looked to be trouble for landing
And yep, completely covered in fog. This is where I spotted the runway having to make a quick S turn to get lined up.
Certainly not sight seeing here today
