Killarney

Spent the day on pleasure activities instead of in the engine room. Took the dinghy up to Covered Portage Cove and hiked up a trail for a beautiful view out over the cove, and over to Fraser Bay. Thought we might see some wildlife, but the sum total was two chipmunks and 2 tiny toads. Three other sets of people also hiking up the trail, some from boats that were anchored in Portage Cove, two other couples from the same dock that we are on. Just after lunch, saw the fishing boat coming back in to Herberts so walked over; bought fresh whitefish and perch, plus some smoked fish. A gentleman had set up a small vegetable stall across the street from the fish place, so stocked up on fresh vegetables. Had some for supper, almost like getting them out of your own garden.  Yummy! This afternoon walked up to the lighthouse, good view out over the entrance to the channel into Killarney.Will move on to Little Current tomorrow if the weather is good.
