| Our gold burgee flying (sort of) on the front of the boat |
We have crossed Lake Ontario, re-entered Canada, and technically crossed our wake! As much as we enjoyed travelling in the US and meeting so many great people there, it is nice to be back in Canada. We were so lucky, got up this morning and checked the lake and the weather, Lake Ontario was dead calm and light variable winds predicted. We left shortly after 6 this morning, and it was a smooth run across the lake. No waves, no winds, and no fog. A perfect day.

Got to Kingston by noon. Our first sight of Canada was the windmill farm on Wolfe Island; the wind was so calm the windmills were very still.
The wind always blows here at Confederation Basin, and sure enough it was breezy as we docked, but that was OK. Wayne has put our gold burgee on the front of the boat. Walked around Kingston enjoying this beautiful town. Wayne's brother and his wife are joining us tomorrow for the rest of the trip home, so Brockville tomorrow night and Crysler Park Marina and home on Wednesday.
Congradulations! It must feel good to fly the gold burgee. I've looked forward before heading off to sleep taken a moment and looking at your Blog and finding out all the great places you've experienced that day and dreaming about the day when I'll see them first hand and if not at least I did this trip vicariously thru you guys. Thanks for sharing your journey. Glad your back safe and sound. jamie
