Day 34 – Wiarton, Ontario (Thursday, June 4, 2015)
I started out from Little Current at 6:19am to be sure that I could get through Manitoulin Island and made the ferry at 11:10am from South Baymouth.
I had a beautiful ride. Perhaps the best ride of the whole trip so far. Manitoulin is quite flat. I had always thought the beauty of the terrain was sub-par compared the outcrops of the Canadian Shield but the during the serene morning ride everything looked just about perfect.
When I arrived at South Baymouth I had time for a serious, French toast breakfast at about 9:50am.
I had a bit of lunch on the ferry – fresh fruit and a muffin and I had supper at Irish Pub in Wiarton – yet another local recommendation.
I stayed at the Waterview Inn in Wiarton which was recommended by the proprietor at Irish Pub. I was unhappy with room #11 which smelled like a rodent. To be fair the owners had done quite a bit of work upgrading the Inn. It is likely an unfortunate issue that will be rectified.
