All the way to Desoronto

From Cobourg, we finally were able to sail to Presqu'ile Bay...a spinnaker ride of 30 miles! We love this area and it was tempting to spend a bit more time in Presqu'ile. We know we can be back here, however, as it is a great destination for the fall, when the leaves turn golden and red and birds are migrating...



Going through the Murray Canal was uneventful...except for the new fee being set at $4.95 (!!!!!!!!!!) which had us laugh pretty hard.  You are supposed to place your money in a little pouch handed to you by the bridge master while passing the bridge.  And they would give change - if needed!  Why not making things easy for every body and charge $5.00???? Anyhow, our next anchorage was in Big Bay (just made it in before the next thunderstorm), located between Belleville and Desoronto and lastly, Desoronto. Definitely very far from big cities here....
