Great Loop Cruise- Week 14- 8/10/05- 8/16/05

Back to Diary 14- 8/10- 8/16

Below are photos from the fourteenth week of our trip. They span along the Trent Severn through lift locks and railroad locks and eventually end up in the Georgian Bay. This is defiantly one of the prettiest part of the trips, but also the most tiring with all of the locks to maneuver.
