One of the reasons we come into Parry Sound was to do our laundry. Unfortunately the laundry in this Marina - Big Sound Marina had only one washer and drier to serve the entire Marina. It would take some time for us to do our laundry even if we had sole access to the machines. We found another laundromat about a 30 minute walk into town so this morning we walked into town. Had breakfast at a delightful little cafe on the corner of Gibson and Sequin streets. Great bread, and coffee. We then went looking for the library in order to access the internet. It appears the feds are putting up money for connectivity areas in the smaller towns. Outside the library was a nice little craft show with some unique items. If we did not have limited space on the boat we might have bought a few things. There is also an annual music festival going on in Parry Sound which has some noted artists playing. It would appear that they have summer homes in the area. When we returned to the boat we decided it was too late to venture out again, so we paid for another night and will leave on the "tide" tomorrow took my bike off the boat and went for a ride on an activity trail they have in the City.
Met an other three Looper couples and had drinks and snacks with them. More
interesting stories.
It's interesting to hear the goals of the various couples and where they intend to stop this year with the intention of putting their boat up and return home. One of couples has been living on their boat for five years! Just traveling.
This will be the last post for a bit until we can reach another town that has internet. However, I will be writing on the tip in word in order to cut and paste when we reach a town with internet.
