After two weeks of travel, we have a TON of laundry to catch up on. Washing and drying took all morning, but I was also able to catch up on blog posts since the marina has free wifi. South Bay Cove Marina is a wonderful, relaxing place to visit. The staff is extremely courteous and helpful. Each morning they provide free coffee and cookies. In addition, the newspaper was delivered to our boat this morning! Trash is picked up throughout the day, you just need to place it on the dock at your slip. They also provide, daily, two bags of ice at no charge. We have hydro (electric) and water, included with the slip fee and they are an AGLCA sponsor and give a discount to loopers. When we arrived, we also had our choice of one of four free welcome gifts! There is a first class restaurant on the premises, and the food is excellent. This is a place that must be added to your trip, you won't be disappointed!
For some fun and excitement today, Bob and I took a dinghy ride to the LCBO store (liquor store) in Honey Harbor. It would have been a nice ride if it hadn't been for the inconsiderate boaters that don't pay attention to the "No Wake" signs. At times, we were being tossed about by waves that were two to three feet, and that was in front of a marina!! We did get the beer and arrived back to the boat safe and sound.
Well, off again tomorrow, destination not determined yet.
my kind of dingy ride (not). Sounds like a very nice marina. Camping this weekend, good time had by all. - Diana
