Weather issues , so a day early to Parry Sound

Hi F and F, 
A wonderful breakfast to start the day. Eggs, bacon and that fresh fish caught yesterday evening.Delicious!
Later in the morning. We head off with Tom , Lilie and Michelle in the car to Southampton, in search of the Southhampton Oils store owned by Tom's relatives.
Erica wanted to buy the black current balsamic vinegar and  olive oil ,Lilie had used on her lettuce salad.
We were successful and then checked out a few shops including the local bakery.
We could smell the good baking smells even before we stepped inside!
We bought some sausage rolls and croissants, which we very good.Then onto Lions Head Marina and back to the boat so we could head off before the nasty weather arrived.
Sorry we couldnt stay longer with our hospitable new friends , but sure we can get together again perhaps In Florida.It was a great stay , short though it was. Quality not quantity!
We left LoinHead at 2 pm and found the seas were pretty calm with a light following wind.Agan not many boats out on the Bay.
Arrived in Parry Sound 3 1/2 hours later and tied up to a large concrete town  dock.(The big SoundMarina was full due to Canada Day celebrations for tomorrow).
As we drove in , many sea planes were taking off and landing just opposite the concrete dock.
Fun to watch and they made quite a steep decent , which was interesting! You can take a plane ride over to Henry's Fish Restaurant on FryingPan Island from here.
Pretty expensive F and C,but at least you have a wonderful view on the  way over.
Walked into the town which is very close by and then ate at the Bistro by the Bay for dinner. Very nice food although fairly pricey.
Relax and bed.
Over and Out, 
E and G
