Two Weeks in the Thousand Islands

A recap of our cruise...  After launching in Picton, we headed to Waupoos for a rendezvous with the crew of Grey Hound... As usual, we had to climb Mount Goofy...

From there we spent a night in Parrotts Bay. Then it was off to Beaurivage Island in the Canadian National Park where it poured rain for about 15 hours... In spite of the rain, it was a beautiful spot. The next night we were back in civilization at Kingston.

From there we headed to Downey and Hambly Islands for a night on the hook with the Grey Hound anchored beside us. There we waited out squall warnings that never materialized. We then headed to Clayton, NY for a night and a tour of the Antique Boat Museum. 

The next day we headed east and did the Castle tour. We did not feel inclined to get off the boat... A-Bay was the next stop to watch the Pirate Days celebration. Fortunately we fueled and docked at Rogers Marina across from the Village Dock... 

Our next stop was Gananoque for a night and bicycle tour of the town.

The next morning we headed to Camelot... Island that is. Spent a quiet night there with storm warnings posted again. We then headed to Bath for the night. A VERY quiet little village...

Camelot Island is a popular spot offering moorings and docks and good hiking.

Wildlife was abundant...



This was one of many quaint private islands in the area...
Our last night was in Picton, getting together with friends Lynn
and Don for dinner, with haul out the next morning. Sixteen hours later we were back home.  180 gallons of diesel, towing 1,810 miles, and 90 gallons of fuel, cruising 220 KM... A beautiful area. We saved the Rideau Waterway for another day...
