Grain Elevators at Old Port Arthur side of Thunder Bay
Canada Goose at Entry to WawaWe arrived in Wawa about 1 pm today. Had a short hop from Marathon. It was an easy day with very little traffic except for westbound trucks. We got set up in Wawa RV Resort. Very nice with free wifi and good for satellite tv. Spent the afternoon taking in the local sites, an old rock drill downtown in a nice park with clear water and sandy beaches. Also visited their two falls, Magpie High falls and Silver Falls. Also visited the local marina, not many boats there this time of year. Naturally couldn't get by the Tim Hortons. Linda bought us coffee and muffins. Tonight Linda is doing the dreaded laundry and my job was dishes. We plan on having a rest day tomorrow. Then on to the Sault.
MARATHON
We had a short drive from Neys Provincial Park to Marathon today. Lots of hills and curves. Good driving though. No construction. Stayed in the Municipal Campground (Penn Lake) was well layed out and kept very nice. It said don't feed the bears. But we didn't see any. Town is nice but the pulp mill is shut down so things are not really good there. Two gold mines still open for the time being.
NEYS PROVINCIAL PARK
Made reservations to stay in Neys Provincial Park. It is a beautiful place on the shores of Lake Superior. Our campsite faced the lake and we could see the waves out the windshield. It was quite windy there so there was lots of waves. The beach was nice sand for about a mile and then turned into large rocks and beach. Really nice for photos and walks. Took lots of pictures. Met some nice folks from Thunder Bay. Couldn't stay two nights as it was too busy.

THUNDER BAY
Toured Thunder bay from Kakabeka Falls. Went to town to see the large grain elevators and the waterfront. Visited the Terry Fox Memorial. It was done really nice and well kept. It is also a rest area. The rest of the time took many pictures of Lake Superior and The Sleeping Giant. Also visited a couple of local waterfront parks in old Fort William and Port Arthur. I had worked here for a few months. Was nice to see the changes etc.
