Monday, July 1st

Woke up and were surprised to see a lot of boats anchored at North Beach, where we had anchored previously and where we were planning to anchor for July 3^rd/4^th.  We guessed, (incorrectly as it turned out), that they were claiming their spots to watch the July 3^rd fireworks.  So we up-anchored and re-anchored at North Beach to claim our spot.  We think, (hope), that we’ve got a pretty nice spot to watch the fireworks, so all we need now is some nice weather. 

Today, July 1^st, is Canada day, so we raised a few Canadian flags in honour of their day.  First, of course, is the Canadian flag, followed by the provincial flags that we have either visited or plan to visit – Quebec, Ontario, PEI, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. 

We cleaned and polished the boat in readiness for July 3^rd/4^th.  Then the rain started again so we “clocked out”, adjourned into the boat, where Teresa produced another marvelous concoction from leftovers – (we forgot to go shopping).
