Saint Lawrence River
Time to
leave Marina de’ Chambly and head up the Richelieu River. After listening to all of the warnings about
the bridge at Point Beloeil, Ken approached it with care. It was a very narrow entrance and the swift
current was pushing us around until Ken powered through. We had plenty of deep water, but we hit
something!!! What lurks under the
waters??? Neither one of us saw
anything. Loop Dreams seems to be OK.
We approached the lock with a floating dock at St. Ours where we were going to stop there for the day, but Ken decided to cruise on. We entered the Saint Lawrence River and turned south, heading home! After 87 miles of cruising we turned off the Saint Lawrence and went down a creek that was full of boaters. It looked like party cove back home!
La Grande Ile proved to be a quiet anchorage even though we had about 30 other boats anchored there. We were treated to a fantastic fire work display an early celebration for Saint John the Baptist which is a holiday for the Canadians.
