My enhanced drivers license is a Michigan license and you need it or a passport to travel into and out of Canada. It cost $45.00. It was the cheaper way to go as a passport is much more. Traveling in Canada is different, the speed limit is posted in kilometers per hour and gasoline is sold by the liter. The posted speed was 90 Km/hr on highway 17. I figured out the exchange rate and converted liters to gallons and when I filled up my F-150 in Marathon, Ontario it amounted to $5.37 sa gallon. It was a great trip and we took four days to do it. The distance around Lake Superior is about 1250 miles. I live right on the route, I live on U.S. 41 in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, about 600 feet from Lake Superior. Now I know what is on the other side! It is beautiful country up there in Canada and our Canadian neighbors are very friendly people.
