In the Soo, Lake Superior conquered!

After Wednesday's 120km day to Pancake Bay, we were left with a short 75km day to our stop in Sault Ste. Marie. We are now done with Lake Superior, and will cut through Lake Huron as we travel through Manitoulin Island to Southern Ontario.

The ride from Pancake Bay started out fairly chilly, with a misty fog rolling onto the highway from the lake. It warmed up later in the day, and we made good time to our accomodations at the Water Tower Inn, thanks to the Soo's EDC. They were kind enough to let us stay for two nights so that we could take a rest day today. It has been fantastic relaxing at the hotel.

Unbeknownst to us, on their way back from Thunder Bay, Mike's mother and sister got a room at the same hotel! We had breakfast with them this morning before they headed off to their cottage further East.

We've had very little to do while we've been here, so the pools and the TV have gotten good use. Tomorrow morning we will head out, as we bike towards Espanola, then down through Manitoulin Island and across the ferry over the next few days.
