(Friday Aug 26 - Dist: 48.3 mi; Avg Speed - 17.3 mph; TTT: 2:40 hrs)
Everything was dead calm in Port Stanley when we left and that translated into a beautiful sunny ride on Lake Erie. I wish that the Great Lakes were that nice more often. Since there was a front coming over the weekend (not Irene thankfully), we decided to spend the weekend in Erieau. Erieau Marina is quite nice with a salt water pool, nice slips, BBQ's, etc.
We did enjoy a very relaxing weekend in this well protected harbour. The evenings were absolutely perfect, so much so that we indulged a little too much sitting on the back of the boat watching people fish nearby. That put a bit of a damper into the next day but all in all very enjoyable.
There is a beach at Erieau but as you can see the sand is not near as nice as the beaches in Ports Dover and Stanley. We of course visited Molly's and OJ's for food and drink and generally spent the rest of our time strolling around the area, sitting by the pool or sitting on our aft deck. Next stop, Leamington.
