Sault Ste. Marie - Day 2


Today was a “down day” for us.  The only ride was down the road to get the GOOD gas.  

BEFORE

AFTER
We are staying right across from the “Soo Locks” and strolled over this morning to watch the ships come in.  One ship was 100 feet across and 1000 in length.  The ships we saw came in from Lake Superior were lowered 21 feet in the lock, and went out into Lake Huron.  Absolutely amazing to watch!

Just another day - taking my ship for a walk...  : )
Tomorrow we are going on a scenic train trip through Canada.  We were advised to get bug spray.  The hotel owners told us the Rite Aid was ½-3/4 miles away.  Definitely closer to 3/4 miles!!!   It is about a five mile ride from here into Canada to get to the train station. We understand that getting into Canada isn’t that difficult; it’s getting back into the US that takes so long – we’ve heard as long as two hours!  This will be interesting…
