Canada Day in Trenton 44◦06'.093N 077◦34'.445W

Here we are, only 3 days from completing our loop. Wow time flies! I made Jim promise me we would be somewhere with fireworks last night and true to his word, we had front row seats to a beautiful light show.
We also got to meet another 5 looper boats and their crew. I am envious as they are just starting their trip, all from the Northern US. We chatted with all of them, exchanged boat cards and wished them all well.
When we arrived here, there were few spots to tie up and by 7pm every single slip was full. I think everyone had the same idea, since the fireworks were released in the park right across from this marina. This is such a good spot, that people came and set their lawn chairs all over the shore line to watch. I don't think they were expecting perfect balance to block their view. 



We were also inundated with small fishing vessels. They were everywhere! We found out later that this was a fishing derby staging area. Lastly we were entertained by a guy wearing a water jet pack, bouncing around the bay. It was really neat to watch, it would be neater to try it. Unfortunately he was so fast I could not get a picture of him.
Anyway we are now heading towards lake Ontario, after a little visit to the farmer's marker.

Only 3 more sleeps to go.  See you soon!
