Day 85 Monday the 30th of Aug. to Sarnia Bay

Depart for Sarnia around 10 AM with the the temperature already hitting 80 degrees and no wind.

Even so, this fisherman might have gone a little overboard when marking his fishing location. From a distance Ron thought it was a life raft and we went closer to see if we could assist.

Our decision had been easy to make when picking Sarnia as they have a great outdoor pool, nice air conditioned cafe' and good docks. Not to mention that the staff is very friendly and helpful. Always.

It's not long after we depart that I realize we'll been leaving our beloved blue waters of Lake Huron. Our experiences together on Lake Huron go way back including the ole racing days before we began our cruising life.

Passing Fort Gratiot Light is always so very pretty. Too bad we are not staying in Port Huron so we can visit this year. It's a lovely beach.

Our first siting of the Blue Water Bridge is foggy, which changed to hazy, to OMG.... a traffic jam on the bridge!

 And we're being pushed by the current enjoying a ride with speeds of 12.2 hooray!!!!!!!!!

As we turn into Sarnia Marina, we pass a freighter from St. Catherine's, it brought memories of being on Lake Ontario during the early part of the trip, as well , it reminded me of my friend Lynda, who was born there. We also show the boat log moving over 1300 NM to date this summer.

The cafe at the marina is just as we remembered, with breakfast and lunch in nice air conditioned rooms with a view of the harbor and a receipt under 12.00 for the two of us. So refreshing.

After hearing some splashes, we ventured to the outdoor saltwater pool. Sorry, but it was another OMG.  When my hands were like prunes, I finally got out. My flippers and I had a good work out of laps while dodging the few kid's in the water.

If "a red sky at night is a sailor's delight", then what happens when it's purple, or orange?  Can't wait to find out tomorrow.
