Kochi Sushi in Brockville. All you can eat sushi, but not that great.

It was a rainy trip but managed to take a couple of barn photos to start my Barn Photo Project.
To keep in mind next time – Thanksgiving weekend is not the best time to visit Ontario places. Most restaurants and attractions are closed (Brockville). Some shops in Merrickville however were open in the afternoon.
