Return to Burritt’s Rapids.

Thursday, July 30

First thing this morning I returned the rental to Enterprise then we were off to start the return trip on the Rideau from Ottawa to Kingston. Since I described this going the other way, I may not describe as much detail going back.

Just on the outskirts of Ottawa
we past this piriate ship.

Jan and Loren need to be in Kingston by August 5, so we need to travel a little faster going back. To get a jump on this we did 37 miles and eight locks today. This took us through the Long Reach and back to Burritt’s Rapid. We spent the night above the lock. We should now have time for them to do some sightseeing along the way.

The weather today was near perfect. It was mostly sunny, low humidity and a temperature in the upper 70’s.

Life is GREAT.
