We're now about half way from Montreal to Quebec City and will probably arrive Quebec tomorrow. Cruising the St Lawrence River is an interesting experience and takes in a lot of territory, starting with the very scenic Thousand Islands region, then advancing through a series of 7 humongous St Lawrence Seaway locks, and finally skirting the south side of Montreal - all the time dodging large ocean going ships in relatively close quarters. It's quite different from any of our usual venues and promises to get even more so as we advance to the north east towards the Canadian maritime provinces. During the past five days, the most boating we did was tubing on the Shenandoah for about ten hours. Fun, but not the most exciting thing to do. Your trip sounds wonderful. Hope all stays well, Wayne. Sounds better than the girl who fell out of the tube and hit a tree on the bank of the Kern River and was killed Sunday. Damn, not good. Where we were, at the Shenandoah River State Park, the water is pretty slow and shallow. But, there are places a small kid could have a big problem if he fell out of a tube. |
