Day 61: Tobermory

km today: 0
total km: 4611.8

We had a leisurely start to our day involving books and coffee. From there we wandered into town with the goal of experiencing “Canada’s diving capitol.” Brandon had wanted to explore the depths of Lake Huron properly by scuba diving, but complications with ”expired” certification papers got in the way. We happily settled for a day of snorkeling.

Now equipped with our snorkel gear we picked up two bags of day-old baked goods (that were not that good), 3lbs of fresh Ontario peaches, 2 suped up hogie sandwhiches and headed off to the beach. The remainder of our day was spent exploring ship wrecks, swimming alongside large unidentified (and tasty looking) fish, reading books and newspapers, chilling in the sun and eating our picnic lunch.Looking dapper........and dashing.You may not be surprised to be seeing these guys around the great lakes, but we've actually been spotting them all the way across the prairies too (apparently they've become quite proficient at living off human refuse). El Chi-Cheemaun.

Back to the campground, we devoured our usual supermarket dinner of 1 rotisserie chicken, a couple of heads of broccoli, and a full box of Raisin Bran. On a side note, we decided that karaoke + campground = future bankruptcy.
