THANKS

KARLA ZIMMERMAN

Thanks to these Newfoundlanders for home-cooked dinners, tours and patience in answering questions: Bryan Curtis, Ron Makowichuk, Alison Croome, Chris and Priscilla Corcoran Mooney, Debrah Wirtzfeld, Robbie Hicks, Vyda, Jim and Murray Scott, Ken Brown, Dave MacDonald, Bonnie Goudie, Carmen Hancock, Ed Kirby and Gillian Marx. Thanks to Lisa Beran for womanning the wheel. Über gratitude to the Canada authors and editorial team for kick-ass work. Thanks most to Eric Markowitz, the world’s best partner-for-life.

JAMES BAINBRIDGE

Merci mille to Melissa Kent and Jonathan Clark in Montréal, Caroline Corfield and Santol in Québec City, Francois in Baie St Paul, Denis Grenier in Tadoussac, Christine Lebel in Sept Îles, Ruan Kent in, err, southeast Ireland, Milou and Martin in Rivière du Loup, Simon Zolotarev and Frank et Ses Potes in Ste Anne des Monts, Sarah Bond in Gaspé, Cynthia Patterson and most of Barachois, and the über-helpful tourist offices everywhere (particularly Natashquan).

CELESTE BRASH

Biggest thanks to my husband, Josh, and my kids, Jasmine and Tevai, for putting up with my absence. Thanks to Cathie from Yarmouth Backpackers, my favorite backpacker connection, and to the people of Nova Scotia for making this the most bump-free trip in my career. It was a pleasure to work with CE-extraordinaire Emily Wolman and all-star coordinating author Karla Zimmerman a second time.

NATALIE FOLSTER

Thanks to David Folster, Marion Beyea, Margot Folster and Maurice Cormier for their company, insights and lodgings on the road. Thanks to John McNair for the use of his cottage, and to Emily Wolman and Karla Zimmerman for patient stewardship of the text. A big thanks to Fred Welsford for driving the truck, loading the canoe, cleaning out the forgotten cooler, food tasting and for being an unfailingly good-natured traveling buddy.

SCOTT KENNEDY

Big thanks to: Kelly Sutherland, Henry Roberts, Don Bender, Ryan Collyer, John Creary, Dave and Anne Frick, Bryan Haggarty, Craig Kitchen, Joanne McPherson, Paul Newmarch, Ned Myopus, my attorney Gavin Harrison and to all great people I met on the road. To my Grandma K, philanthropist, world traveler and a great Canadian – we miss you. Mom and Dad for all your support over the years, and most of all to my wife, Sophie – for everything.

JOHN LEE

Many thanks to Lana at Tourism Vancouver Island for her help on this and other projects, in addition to the host of area tourism staff and generous locals who chatted to me along the way – it’s amazing how well a free beer can loosen the tongue on regional rivalries and spill the beans on in-the-know tips. Thanks also to my friends and family for their support and for forcing me to take occasional but very necessary breaks during my hibernation-style write-up period.

GRAHAM NEALE

Less than a year apart I partied with BC Lions Grey Cup champs and met the best girl in the world at the same bar in Winnipeg. Awesome. Speechless. Thanks to Ang and Jerome, for the everything-Manitoba lesson(s); to Wally and Mark for Churchill adventures; to Janice and Colette for invaluable assistance; to Manitoba the fish for inspiration. I met a lot of people, saw a lot of sites, all of them with special charm.

BRANDON PRESSER

My unending gratitude to Jack and Sheila. Big thanks to: Dad and Mum; Kattrin Sieber; Helen Lovekin; Morris and Wendy; Clarence Trapper; Rob Greggorini; Jim and Teri in Britt; Ruth Yeo; Brenda Renwick; Jantine van Kregten; Chipie; Lloyd Jones; U2 and Gwen Stefani for the many car ride sing-a-longs; and to the Lonely Planet staff, especially Emily Wolman, Charles Rawlings-Way, Amanda Sierp and Karla Zimmerman – you guys are rock stars, too.

CHARLES RAWLINGS-WAY

Thanks to the following folks for their input, generosity and friendship during the creation of this book: the Bentley Clan for hot dinners and rides in the Jag; Roger Dufau and Kathleen Stanley for Elora’s warmest welcome; and Brandon Presser, Emily Wolman and the in-house LP staff for slap-shooting this puck of a book into the back of the net. More than ever, thank you Meg for sticking around while I gallivant, hemispheres away.

SARAH RICHARDS

Thanks to my parents for encouraging me to feed the travel bug from an early age and to my husband, Benjamin, for all his love and support – even when an intensive writing session renders me delirious for days.

AARON SPITZER

Qujannamiik and mahsi cho to the numerous Northerners who gave me the lowdown on the top of the world, especially Don Jaque in Fort Smith, Sean Percy in Hay River and Roxanna Thompson in Fort Smith. A huge thanks to Amy Elgersma for lodging, local knowledge and lots of fun in Iqaluit. Cheers to my boss at Up Here magazine, Marion Lavigne, for letting me moonlight as a guidebook author. And, finally, an ovation for my editor on this project, Emily Wolman.

RYAN VER BERKMOES

Tony Dovas in Dawson is an island of fun and Jim Kemshead is the jester. I never tire of Dick North’s stories. Bruce Wishart and Jillian Greenwood always make me stay an extra day in Prince Rupert – and not just because my head hurts. Betsy Trumpener seeded me with ideas, John Lee was mensch and my mates aboard the Malaspina were always shipshape. Of course Erin Corrigan is simply a doll.

THE LONELY PLANET STORY

Fresh from an epic journey across Europe, Asia and Australia in 1972, Tony and Maureen Wheeler sat at their kitchen table stapling together notes. The first Lonely Planet guidebook, Across Asia on the Cheap, was born.

Travelers snapped up the guides. Inspired by their success, the Wheelers began publishing books to Southeast Asia, India and beyond. Demand was prodigious, and the Wheelers expanded the business rapidly to keep up. Over the years, Lonely Planet extended its coverage to every country and into the virtual world via lonelyplanet.com and the Thorn Tree message board.

As Lonely Planet became a globally loved brand, Tony and Maureen received several offers for the company. But it wasn’t until 2007 that they found a partner whom they trusted to remain true to the company’s principles of traveling widely, treading lightly and giving sustainably. In October of that year, BBC Worldwide acquired a 75% share in the company, pledging to uphold Lonely Planet’s commitment to independent travel, trustworthy advice and editorial independence.

Today, Lonely Planet has offices in Melbourne, London and Oakland, with over 500 staff members and 300 authors. Tony and Maureen are still actively involved with Lonely Planet. They’re traveling more often than ever, and they’re devoting their spare time to charitable projects. And the company is still driven by the philosophy of Across Asia on the Cheap: ‘All you’ve got to do is decide to go and the hardest part is over. So go!’
