You did one thing perfectly when dealing with customs….be polite no matter how bad it gets.

As a Canadian, who has spent a lot of time in the US, I have crossed the border at many locations, many times. I completely agree how the border crossings into the US are more of a challenge, than coming into Canada. I have no issue with a thorough check or a search if the border guard is pleasant, and most are, but several times, the US Border Guards have been unnecessarily rude and aggressive - little bully boys who feel big in a uniform. This always leaves me with a bad feeling and does not represent the USA well.

I was born in downtown Detroit and grew up in the Detroit area … My brothers and I used to ride our bicycles across the Ambassador Bridge into Canada and back with no documentation at all. That was 50 years ago.

Detroit is the worst place to cross back over into the States, at least with our 30 years of experience. We stopped going through Detroit and started going north through Sarnia. They are much more cordial.😊

I've never had issue crossing into Canada. Coming back into the US by car and by plane has always been a bigger deal.

I live in Canada 🇨🇦 a Canadian..glad our borders are doing their job.

Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, and our international Singing Competition (Sweet Adelines, barber shop singing) was last minute moved to Detroit… our chorus could only find lodging in Canada. SOOO everyday twice a day we went through Customs! The only ‘trouble’ we had was first trip back into Canada the agent had me open on second sliding door to see all of us 7 women! And then… he ASKED us to SING😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️

I am a plane owner/pilot, and they searched my plane when I entered into Canada and when I landed in Seattle on the way back. I think it is a good idea.

Ok I’m Canadian and spent 43 years as a commercial driver crossing back and forth over pretty much every border crossing between our two countries. It doesn’t matter which way you are going. You will encounter pleasant agents and those that like to show the fact that you are under their control and that is true for either side. Carrying food seems to be a bigger issue going south but there are regulations to protect against carrying disease in the food either way. Rv’s tend to get searched more often for those returning to their home.

When you were going OUT of Canada - you report to U.S. Border Service Agents on the way INTO the U.S. Losing only an Avocado to a Border Inspection would be a win in my books! There’s a lot of meat & produce that you cannot bring into the U.S. They’re just protecting their agricultural industry from pests & diseases, as every sovereign country is entitled to do.

Leave it to our US government to make it difficult to enter without proper lane signage and then act annoyed when the RVer enters the wrong lane.

Yes, the Detroit crossing is the more difficult crossing. I have done it every year for the last 5 years. The new bridge construction isn't helping. Hope it gets better after the new Gordie Howe Bridge opens.

I love sleeping in my own bed no matter where I go. It’s your home and it feels so wonderful. Most people don’t understand that. 😊great video.

Thanks for taking us across the US-Canada border both ways, Robin! Learn something new every day. Oh that mattress....!

I hear you girl. I'm parked at my friends house. I think a few years ago people might've had a beef with me parking in their neighborhood. Due to the economic times we live in, more than a few people here have campers in their driveways, or yards. Some might be B&B but majority are relatives or friends living in them. I might go to an RV park eventually, but for now everything you said about having your own bed, fridge etc vs a guest room is exactly my feelings.

I found the same thing,, The US Border guards gave me a hard time but going back to Canada was easy. However, I made my avocados into guacamole before I headed into the states, and bananas into banana nut muffins so nothing got thrown out.

When my late husband and I crossed from Montana and to Canada, they pounced on our van like a herd. My husband told them if they took things out of the van, they better put it back the same way that we had it packed. We were there about an hour. And they did they had it all organized and put it back properly.

I remember when you could go over to Canada without even showing a driver's license. The Canadian border has always been easier and more polite to go over than the US border, and I'm from the US. My C class got searched in 1997 when crossing over from Montana. I think largely because we were the only crossing so far that day. 😅

I crossed over into Canada on the Pacific Northwest side this past Fall, and it was smooth both ways. My daughter and grandson were with me and we had all of our documentation ready. Everyone was nice and friendly!
