The Marina at Old Port, Montreal - We Chose Not to Stay in This Marina as we Would of had to go Through Two More Seaway Locks
Montreal - The gang of us took the dinghies to down the Lachine Canal to old port Montreal. We had a great trip through the canal and it took 3 hours. We tied to the dinghy dock between Lock 1 and 2 and then we were off to explore the city and have lunch. On the way back we stopped at the historic Atwood Market to pick up a few things. This market has vegetable and fruit vendors, flowers, cheese market, fish market, with all the finer things in life. We did get a little wet due to a thunder storm but then it warmed up again. Sort of like throwing water on the rocks in a sauna. Back at the marina we met up with a couple (Carole and Allan) we met the first time we did the Rideau System, this is their home port. Danny and I went back into the old port the next day, this time by taxi, to walk around and go for dinner. We went to Gibby's which is a steak house in the old port, it also is in a very old building. Very quaint.
