Elijah & Jinx - What a Team! - Elijah, our driver and tour guide, was delightful. Jinx, our beautiful carriage horse, was the perfect gentleman. Our ride through Beacon Hill allowed us to see peacocks, Canadian geese, glorious flowers, James Bay Parliament buildings and totems, along with lovely homes.
