The weather forecast for the area between Erieau & Port Stanley included early afternoon thunderstorms so we decided to stay in Erieau another day.<\/p>\n

It was my turn to cook breakfast and I was looking forward to impressing Pennie & Mike with my culinary skills. Unfortunately there is no Spam on board so we had to make due with extra thick cut bacon with fried potatoes & poached eggs. They hid their disappointment about the Spam well & happily accepted the meat substitution.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m sure I will be able to pick up a few cans of Spam in Port Stanley & be able to make it up to them before they head home to Goderich.<\/p>\n

It was an odd weather day in the marina. Throughout the morning heavy dark clouds passed by overhead but none stopped to dump any rain on us. Later in the afternoon we had a couple of light showers but they only lasted a few minutes & then the sun came back.<\/p>\n

The marina is very well kept & has great amenities.<\/p>\n

It was a good day to just relax & enjoy the surroundings.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The marina offers free internet access but unfortunately they limit the number of devices per password. It took a bit of effort but I finally managed to set up my wifi hotspot device so we could share access to several devices at once. High Fives all around.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Santosha appears to be content in the spot we were assigned & so are we – close to the showers & washrooms – a plus for us seniors!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Tomorrow (Monday) we will try to get to Port Stanley. That segment of our journey is about 42 nautical miles & should take about 6 1\/2 hours.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The weather forecast for tomorrow looks good so we will cast off around 8:00am.<\/p>\n

Cheers!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
