Ryan's Flat Stanley Visits Ontario, Canada!

Ryan's Flat Stanley had a fabulous visit with Ryan's relative, Marlyn Brownrigg!  She lives in Canada, which is the country north of the United States.  Ontario is one of 10 provinces and three territories that make up Canada.  
Oakville is approximately 40 miles west of Toronto, Ontario, and borders Lake Ontario.  The Niagara Falls, NY border is one hour away.  Oakville has a population of 187,300 people.

Oakville was founded in 1857 by Colonel William Chisholm, and enterprising merchant and shipbuilder, who built Erchless Estate overlooking his new harbor and Lake Ontario.  Today, visitors can still enjoy that magnificent view and explore the beautiful buildings, grounds and gardens with guided tours offered by the Oakville Museum.  Oakville is home to many businesses but two of their most well known are Tim Horton's and the Weather Network.   

This is in front of the director's controls at the weather network.  The Weather network is like the Weather Channel from the United States.  The Weather Network broadcasts local areas and it is on TV 24 hours a day!
