Single Older Woman – Cdn Vacations – Outings #6 – Liberation Park

July 18, 2021

I’m already halfway through my short road trip and today I’m in Goderich.

The drive to #OwenSound will only take about 1 1/2 hours, so today was a local exploration day. Then a leisurely drive north on hwy 21 to Owen Sound and my final hotel stay, at #Innon6th.

I had a continental breakfast at the hotel, checked out around 11 am and made my way to the centre of Goderich.

I discovered previously in my tourist research, a dedication park , celebrating the Liberation of the Netherlands from Germany, was located in Goderich. I had to check this out on behalf of my parents.

#LiberationMemorialPark Goderich, ON

My parents belonged to a choir, in the late 1980’s, known as the #Liberationchoir and they performed throughout Ontario and traveled to the Netherlands to perform with dozens of other choirs for this same purpose.

Just as I cherished my earlier visit to #Pier21 in Halifax, NS to see the passenger manifest of when my dad came to Canada, being able to walk through this memorial was equally important to me.

With this visit complete, it was time to get on the road.

Next stop – Owen Sound and #Innon6.

Thank you for reading and letting me share.
