Though I've been living in South Korea for almost 2 years, Thunder Bay will always, always be home.

- G.K. Chesterton
They're wrong when they say you can never go home again, but it isn't always easy. It's hard to believe you can experience culture shock when returning to a place you've known for most of your life. Friends, family, and a well stocked cooler make it so much more enjoyable.
Situated at the tip of Lake Superior,Thunder Bay is rather remote and is best known for its outdoor attractions. Camp out beneath the stars, hike the Sleeping Giant, swim in Lake Superior, go skiing, skidooing, dog-sledding, fishing, hunting, berry picking...

Thunder Bay no longer has the Flyers. The only team to watch is the University hockey team. They usually play to a crowd of 2000-3000 people. They are the Lakehead Thunderwolves. Tickets are $5 for students, $10 for adults.
The Inntowner is shut down.
you not kidding that water is cold
We are sailing across Superior and will be docking in Thunder Bay, hopefully for Aug. 5 and 6th. I really appreciate the tip on Hoito. We have never tried it, but the pancakes have us convinced that we must enjoy a breakfast here.
