Thursday, July 25th

Dennis and Ank came over in the morning and reported that everything was fine with Bodyguard.  They set off to catch the tide to Rimouski, a little further down the St. Lawrence, and a couple of hours later, we set off with the tide up the Saguenay River also known as the Saguenay Fiord.  This is a beautiful river, with 1000’ cliffs rising from each side.  It’s also deep – our chart showed depths of 890’ in places, which totally confused our echo sounder.  We saw a lot of beluga whales on the way, and when we arrived we were greeted by a seal. 
We picked up a mooring in Baie d’Eternite, 48 18.07N 07019.59W, which was so peaceful and quiet compared to the past 2 nights!  Oh and it was absolutely beautiful too – by far the most beautiful spot we’ve seen so far this season.
