Day Three Manitoulin Island to Durham, ON

I guess it is high time I posted something new - I've been getting hints.

On day three, Friday July 4Th. we left Jansen's around 11 a.m. It was a very nice day for a drive south through Manitoulin Island - Evert had given us directions from their place so we didn't need to drive back to Little Current to find our way on the main highway. We arrived at South Baymouth, where the ferry terminal is, a little after noon. We paid our tickets and got the van parked in line for the ferry. Near the van there was a handy picnic table so we spread out our lunch things and dined in style while other folks were lining up for the ferry. After lunch we had time to walk around the area, visit the travel information center and one of the shops.

Picture five - a light house that we passed as we neared Tobermory, ON. T. is at the tip of the Bruce peninsula.

On board the ferry we strolled around, sat outside on the deck for a while but it was fairly breezy and cool, went shopping at the on board shop and sat in the eating area for a while.

It took us nearly two hours to drive from Tobermory to Durham. We stopped for supper at a KFC in Hanover, ON before we reached NTM at Durham.

Val & Dennis' home was available for us to stay in and Pat had directions where to find the key even though they were not at home but at the Jungle Camp. We settled in for the night and Pat, found some work to keep her occupied for part of the evening. The morning just couldn't come soon enough for her.
