Little Current, Ontario – Clapperton Island, Ontario – July 29, 2008

This morning we went grocery shopping and walked around town looking in some of the stores. They have some cute shops.

We left the marina at 12:30 this afternoon. We had a short run to an anchorage at Clapperton Island. We anchored at 3:00 and Bob and Margaret rafted to us. There are many other boats anchored here. It is a popular anchorage.

We are now in the North Channel. The North Channel was created by glaciers and has some of the oldest rocks in the world exposed on its north shore. Many of the rocks in this area are more than 3 billion years old. The shoreline is rugged and sparsely populated.

Bob and Darrell tried their luck again at fishing. They were successful today. We had another wonderful fish dinner.
