Back Home

September 4

We've been back in Toronto since August 19 and naturally caught up in "getting back to normal". Following our night in Ashtabula we headed to Erie for a couple of days, then directly across to Port Colborne. We were luck to get quick passage through the Welland canal along with two other sailboats. Not difficult but still tiring, standing in the sun for several hours minding the lines.

Southern Cross berthed at Erie Yacht Club. We sailed under the bridge, wondering where we would end up! I'm sure the yacht basin was there before the hotel/convention center was built.
To complete our voyage we did a bit of Lake Ontario cruising, stopping for two nights at Dalhousie Yacht Club and one at the Oakville Club.

Great to be home but we are already planning possible future trips. The North Channel is our number one pick.
