Lock 9 Wall, St Jean, Quebec, Chambly Canal


45 18.745N
73 15.04W

Walking around town

A path starts at this lock and ends ten miles away at the next lock.  A lot of people were using the path today. 

We have a good view from our dockage at Lock 9

Children of all ages watching the boats in the lock

Only lock today.  These locks are the smallest we have seen and only went down less than a foot!

Just passed Canadian Customs--real windy day and these little guys are trying to make it across the river in front of us.  At first they were not making much progress but then they got their act together.  We are now in french speaking Quebec.

Came across a Bass fishing tournament sponsored by FLW, this is one of the bigger fish on Sunday



Had to take a picture of the restaurant on the dock


Boy two weeks went fast!  Unfortunately Grandma and Grandpa Camp is coming to an end!
