Sat aug 7
Left the soo and promptly had no cell coverage for rest of day.



Stopped at pancake bay stores for smoked fish wine and vodka.



Next stop was agawa bay where the blue water and waves were spectacular. We had lunch there and Eric and Katie went swimming.









Next stop was old woman bay where water was colder but fun times swimming were had... under watchful eye of lifeguard.. who gave iPhone and camera to sister just in case.






A short ride down the highway and we were in michipocotin bay at Johanna and sam's.









We had snacks and great pizza for supper and then walked to former town dock site to watch sunset... Beautiful!!
A fire on the brach was a great way to end the day!

Watch for buggies, look closely and you can see the sign. There are a lot of mennonites/amish/hutterites (?) in this part of northern Ontario
