Portneuf, heading south again.

Hi Fand F, 
Well so far we have had 10 days of nonstop sunshine and good weather!
Today was no different and we checked out the currents and found a favorable time to depart so we had the currents going with us.
 This meant we left just before 2 pm . So Lynne and I decided to check out the baby and children's store called Benjo we had seen while riding on the bus tour. It was a short walk away.
Indeed this store proved to be amazing.We could have spent hours in there now we are both grandmothers and have a feel for these things! They had items from all over the world for sale.
 Picked up fresh baguettes. (are so good here ) and back to the boat for lunch and to get ready for our 2 pm departure .We entered back through the lock system and onto the St Lawrence Seaway and arrived at the little Harbour of Portneuf just over 2 hours later It was an easy run.When we arrived no one was around so we just picked a slip we thought looked suitable and docked.
Later two guys turned up, apologized for not being there , they had been out sailing.
Got the necessary wifi code , keys for the facilities and gate. The office lady was due in at 5 pm to take our money for the slip charge for the night.
Later we went for an early evening walk and saw a very pretty sunset. The Marina restaurant had been given big recommendations, so we booked there for dinner and indeed had a very good meal before turning in for the night.
Over and Out, 
S and S.
