As you can see from the sky Nana and Nandad docked just in time - well almost! Our journey along Flueve Saint Laurent was very uneventful. In fact Nandad was very happy with the three knot current carrying us along - the fuel consumption was very efficient. Now Nana had read about how the river weather can change quickly and we witnessed this just before arriving into Sorel. The wind picked up, the rain came down and our visibility was restricted. Lucky for us there were no large vessels around so we just slowed down and waited for it to pass. It did make it a little challenging for Nandad when docking - as you can see we were very close to the dock and the boat to our stern had three very big 425 hp engines - so we certainly didn’t want to get to close to those.
The restaurant here is called Le Belvedere which is so appropriate as the view of the St Lawerence River is wonderful. The food was also very good.
Tomorrow we will make our way up the Richelieu River which will eventually take us to Lake Champlain.
