Indian Harbour, Georgian Bay for lunch




The passages to and from Henry's were very narrow and the alignment of the boat had to be pretty exacting. When we entered Indian Harbour, it was just beautiful. We did some gunkholing and found a very interesting sign on an island that said that it was a release area for the rattle snake. We decided not to go ashore on the island. We did go swimming and it was probably our last swim for the season.
The "rock person" imitates indian statues that show which way to go.

Henry's Frying Pan Island



Some of the things we saw on our way to Henry's which is an internationally known resturant. People actually come by float plane. They have dockage for about forty boats. It was about 27 nautical miles from Beausoleil Island to Henry's.

Frying Pan Bay, Beausoleil Island, Georgian Bay

44 53.883'N
70 50.772'W

Just a little inlet on Beausoleil Island which is a Provincial Park. The sign that talked about bears discouraged us from walking around the island. We met probably the last of the loopers. They really were far behind. They were from Texas.

Admirals Marina, Honey Harbor






We stayed in Honey Harbour doing some odds (laundry) and ends (dinghy rides for ice cream) until our neighbors from Mumford Cove, Lolly and Duncan, arrived on 9/1/07. In the mean time we met Ted Larson who had the slip next to us in the Marina. Ted, his wife Pat, along with neighbors Dave and Sue had done the loop in 2004-2005 aboard Ted and Pat's boat. Their cottages are on Tabasakwa Island and Ted offered to lead us into the area and Bone Island.
