May 17: Ontario and Roundup

Since it was kind of cold in my room I woke up and I saw the most beautiful sunrise seen in many many years. I took a bunch pictures

The Cottage I woke up to.

I posted on Facebook while I can still have Internet access. I'm hoping to find a good breakfast place was good coffee I got whatever 70 some kilometers to the ferry. It's now 6:06 AM. Have a great day.

Well, I arrived at Tobermory

in plenty of time to eat at a nice little diner right next to the ferry. Old-fashioned breakfast was consumed. It was sausage toast and hashbrowns Yum!! Oh and  the coffee was what the doctor ordered. The ferry leaves at 8:50

A Nice View

AM. It was $52 each way. There are two places left as of today at Little Current which is on the northern part ofManitoulin Island. That's where the round is.

Coffee Before Ferry

What I said on the doing is staying here for the day and take the last ferry out. Of course I'll see if I can try to crash with somebody from some cash and leave on the first ferry tomorrow.

The Ferry to Tobermory

The ferry leaves at 8:50 AM and arrives around 1230. Looks like a 3 1/2 hour ferry ride. It's a nice sunny cool day here in Tobermory Ontario.

Entering Ferry

I caught the ferry and it was very pretty took about almost 2 hours to get there. Another nice man from Ontario somewhere

A View from Ferry

Cruising on Manitoulin Island

which is north east part of the medical and Island. I went to the center and immediately ran into some guys from Philadelphia. It was really cool they were very surprised I just showed up. I even got a place to stay for $35!
