3rd Week Out-2, June 30

On Tuesday, we left Tobermory and headed south along the eastern side of the Bruce Peninsula. Our first stop was Lion's Head. We tied up at the shoppers dock for a couple hours and rode the bikes to get some groceries. In Canada, they are trying to phase out the use of plactic bags, so people bring their own reuseable bags; we didn't have a bag so I used my shirt.

The picture with the bike in the foreground is the marina at Lion's Head.

After two hours at Lion's Head, we moved on to Wiarton. We put on 1,289 liters of diesel fuel. It was a very slow pump; we must have been at the fuel dock for an hour. The boys that fueled the boat said it was a record for the amount of fuel pumped in one boat. It was a good price at $3.20 a gallon, U.S.

We spent the night here and, in the morning, we rode our bikes (and walked them part way) up a very large bluff that overlooks the harbor. We were trying to get a good picture so we walked for about 1/2 mile each way on the Bruce Nature Trail that goes down the Bruce Peninsula. We finally got to a lookout for the harbor, but could not get a good picture (too many trees).

This picture was taken as we were leaving Wiarton headed for Penetanguishene. It is July 1, Canada Day.
