Send them up to Muskoka or Algonquin Park to see the hardwood forests,
hills and the lakes and rivers or up to Collingood area.

Gee, I hope 50 is not too far over the hill. I am over 50 and could give
you a run for your money.

Muskoka and Algonquin Park around the end of September is probably the
best place to see fall colours. There are vast hardwood forests all
through the area and the colour changes are rather sudden so you get all
the leaves changing at the same time. More southerly forests have a slower
change so it is less dramatic.

That's more than a 2-3 day trip. It will take that long for them to get
there and back. Should they go, count on a lot more time than that.
Lunnenburg and Louisburg are interesting places. The Bay of Fundy National
Park is a great place to go and see incredible tides. A 45 foot tide has
to be seen to be believed. The Gaspe peninsula is nice.
