Overnight at Confederation Basin Marina, Kingston<\/p>\n

44\u00b013\u203242\u2033 N 76\u00b028\u203243\u2033 W<\/p>\n

Sadly, our journey was coming to an end. One more day & we would be in Kingston & Glenn would soon be off to visit a friend in Cornwall for a couple of days & then fly back to Calgary.<\/p>\n

We watched the Kawartha Voyager go through the locks & then it was our turn.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The KV was specially built for traveling the Rideau & Trent-Severn waterways. The bow is raised before entering the locks. This helps to provide maximum space for passengers on the ship. It\u2019s very interesting to watch it go through the locks. You can learn more about this cruise line by following this link: http:\/\/ontariowaterwaycruises.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n

We just had 2 more sets of locks to pass through – a single lock at Lower Brewers – no craft brewery their either \ud83d\ude41 & then a set of 4 locks at Kingston Mills.<\/p>\n

We passed through all the locks in time to get the 2:00pm opening of the Basquel Bridge in Kingston & headed for our reserved dock space at Kingston\u2019s Confederation Basin Marina.<\/p>\n

Hot showers, laundry & only a few steps to numerous restaurants, a grocery store & an LCBO – who could ask for more?<\/p>\n
