Brockville Harbour Part II

Lunch on Wednesday, July 24th, [Off to Brockville!] 


We took a walkabout around the harbour. It was quite warm, the cloud cover was lovely.


There is a restaurant and they were selling lots of ice cream.



There were a couple of cormorants.

Everyone was keen on checking out the old car!


I love the oversized Muskoka chairs!


I love the old houses.


Farewell, Brockville.


"Look," we heard, "a plane on a stick!"

Tall Ships Brockville 2016

It was a spur-of-the-moment trip. We've been to Brockville many times, but on an amazing day, one of the last beautiful summer-like days, we thought we'd visit the tall ships. It is lovely being by the water. There was much going on, even though this was Friday, and the big events took place on Saturday/Sunday.



This is an amazing memorial, dedicated to women who have experienced violence. The inscription reads:
“This is dedicated to all the women and girls for whom violence is a daily reality, for those who have died at the hands of violence, and to all the women and men who work to end it”



We were walking on Blockhouse Island.


Happy to leave the hustle and bustle of the city, the buildings are beautiful in this old city. These are drive-by shootings as hubby gritted his teeth and navigated our way out of town!
