Croker Island to Blind River Marina, Blind River, Ontario, Canada

 It was a chilly morning as we watched Red Dog trawler depart and we were not far behind them. We maneuvered around the rocky islands to find the wide passage and continued on with the wind behind us. It warmed up and was a nice sunny day as we pulled in behind the rocky sea wall to Blind River Marina. We took a walk to find RJ's Pizza for lunch but it turned out to be take out only. We then changed directions and went to Pier Sports Bar on the riverfront which had just closed unexpectedly 3 days ago. We retraced our path and crossed the bridge to the downtown to 17 Restaurant, It was the busy local diner and we had a delicious meal of potato perogy pasta with salad and sausage, We stopped at the LCBO Liquor store for a six pack of local brews and some wine before returning to the marina. Next to the marina was an Art Gallery and Timber Village Museum showcasing indigenous art and artifacts. We got our five miles of walking in.
