It's beginning to look a lot like summer 43◦57'.263N 078◦09'.964W

We made our way through the Murray Canal and slowly up lake Ontario to Cobourg. Our arrival at the harbor was coloured with summer activities. There is a fair going on, complete with Ferris wheel and competitive training exercises for rowers.  Which of course made it look a lot like summer, despite the cool temperatures a mere 16◦C for a high. The lake was not glass, but relatively calm with a moderate chop to lull us back to the cruising life. Man I love it out on the big water. We completed our 297th lock yesterday and I must say, I am OK with not seeing any locks for a while.
We arrived in good time today, so we took advantage of the sunshine and went for a walk into town. We ran across the old city jail and Jim could not resist taking a picture. They don't make them like this anymore!
We are having a quiet evening in, although the word quiet is not quite right. There is loud music coming from the fair grounds and the bee bop music is starting to get on my nerves.  Once we go to bed, hopefully we won't hear it too much.
Tomorrow we are heading to Toronto for our last night at anchor for quite some time. Better get some sleep, cause we have a bigger day tomorrow.

Good night all
