Sunday July 29th


Another windless day so we motored all day to Ile Tekakwitha, 45° 24.48N 73° 42.72W.  Had to go through two locks on the way and we ended up locking right behind 2 cigarette boats rafted together.  One had 10 bikini clad sun worshippers on board.  Teresa did not enjoy being at the bow when both boats started up their mighty engines to leave the lock.  We should have had ear mufflers and oxygen masks!  We were expecting this anchorage to be a bit of a dump since the canals we’ve been in recently are much more industrial and this anchorage is right next to the canal we’ll take to Montreal tomorrow.  But we were pleasantly surprised – it’s very nice.  So nice in fact that we took a nice refreshing swim as soon as we anchored.
