Peterborough Day 3-going on a boat ride...







Well I am not good about remembering to take pictures of people though I did take lots of children when I taught.





Come to think of it I didn't take this one-Anne's husband, Barrie did but here we are after more than 40 years of friendship!





We were having lots of fun exploring the "Best Gift Shop in Eastern Ontario", Lockside Trading Post at Young's Point.









































A fun store and a very pretty spot and I was able to observe how a lock works!





Lock closes and water begins to rise

















And now boat is on other side...





Due to lock system you could conceivably go all the way to Atlantic Ocean from here or to Gulf of Mexico from here!





Here's a map of this system





Our lunch spot





And then we went to wait for our cruise on Stony Lake





At a lovely resort























But it was time for our cruise

















The house below was used in the soap opera All My children when Erica was kidnapped.















































Below is the glass boat house






We really enjoyed our cruise and our day!
