Day 280 - 283
We entered the Trent-Severn Waterway and almost immediately began transiting locks. These days were long days with a lot of locks and not very many miles. The first day we transited seven locks and only went seven miles in six hours. The lock crews were on off-season hours so the locks were only open from 10:00 am until 4:00 pm and you had to be at the lock by 3:30 pm in order to get through before closing. Most of the locks are manually operated so take longer to get through than hydraulically operated locks. We spent a couple of nights tied to lock walls and then finally a marina in Peterborough, ON. I'll put up these pictures of the last few days without a lot of explanation due to time constraints. I'll try to get back to the page later and expand the descriptions.
