WE ARE HOME!!!! - Youngstown to Hamilton - Total Trip: 1297 Nautical Miles

Goodbye USA ...Hello Canada !

This picture of Fort Niagara is our last sighting of america for this trip. We set off around 7 am ...into the fog and headed to Canada.

The lake was very flat...transplant windless here.....and a little foggy. This is a picture of the mouth of the Welland Canal where the freighters come out....seriously, look hard...we were quite close to it...and wouldn't you know while we were cautiously watching the radar while crossing the shipping lanes and ringing our fog bell...there popped up right in front of us (undetectable on the said radar) some guy fishing ...yes in 225 feet of water in the shipping channel in the fog in a fiberglass boat and no radar detector....what do you say ???

Awe ...we remember what is it like to await the bridge to open..almost home :)

Kelly kills flies and stands in the shade while Kyle awaits the lifting of the noon bridge.

Ties to the wall at he front of our clubhouse. We awaited customs for an hour. They did their inspection duties then "freed" us to go to the club and say hello to everyone. We will be parked on the wall until they figure out a slip for us or we winter the boat....whichever comes first ...lol.

The Royal Hamilton Yacht Club has a very nice pool and bar side pool service...sooo since my temp reading says 96.5 F we are going to go off to the pool soon.

Then dinner and sleep. Tomorrow we go home :) I have warned our housesitter we are coming ! Kelly is super excited about seeing all her friends. I know she loves us but I think she is ready for someone her own age to hang with.

Thursday afternoon we drive to Toronto to official name the boat :)
