VISIT OTTAWA & QUEBEC CITY CANADA




One of our 2 night stops will be in Ottawa,  Canada's Capital, a city which we have not visited before on any Morgan's Over America- see Ottawa Tourism . We will skip Toronto and Montreal this trip, and instead spend two nights each in Ottawa and Quebec City before heading southeast  toward Prince Edward Island -see PEI tourism. We so enjoyed Quebec City on a prior trip and missed making it to PEI.

20 MORGANS SIGNED UP

There has been a terrific response to our first communication for Morgans Over America VI 2015.  Twenty potential participants (Morgans)  have signed up so far, with Morgans  from the US, Canada, UK, Switzerland, and Australia. Some are repeat Morganeers from MOA III, IV and V and some are new. 
In January 2014, we will start requesting registration deposits, so that we can start booking hotels with a clear idea of the numbers of rooms needed. As before, the entire amount for hotels will be paid to our travel agent in advance 
As last time, we discourage not doing the entire route, as it makes planning very difficult and unfairly puts the extra costs on the full participants. However, we will make a final decision on this when we determine the actual numbers of full participants.

ROUTE BEGINNING AND END

The decision was made to start MOA VI in Savannah, Georgia as it is a busy big port on the east coast of the US to ship cars from UK and easy to reach by air.
Participants can arrive early and spend extra  time  visiting this wonderful city of  Savannah, Georgia.
The end will be in/near  Colonial Williamsburg with shipping and flying out o
of Norfolk, VA which is nearby.
Both of these cities are very historic and provide insight into American history.

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT MOA VI


Experience North American History while driving your Morgan over scenic roads in the Eastern US and Canada. Join with Morganeers from America, UK and other countries on a 38 day journey through 14 states and 5 Canadian provinces.
