Lachine

Today we did the Lachine Canal which runs thru Montreal. There are five locks that take about 3.5 hours without stopping. We stopped so it took us 6 hours. The Lachine has an air draft restriction of 8’ so large boats have to take a different route. There are bike and walking paths along the canal and many people out enjoying them ! It’s really nice to see so much activity. All of the Lachine locks have floating docks that rise with the water level. We were able to get out on the dock while locking thru. Moki and I even went up top twice. Just past lock three there is a large market with many vendors. We stopped on the park dock outside the lock and loaded up on some goods. Went thru our last two locks and are now tied up on the park dock just outside the last lock in Lachine. There is a large park here with plenty of places to walk Moki. Even Princess Luna got a chance to stretch her legs on shore. Tomorrow we are back in the St. Lawrence River for a short spell.Читать далее
