Once arriving in HASTINGS, we stayed on the town wall with three other boats ( All "Loopers"). HASTINGS is right on the Trent River, in what is considered to be Ontario's "Cottage Country". The motto of HASTNGS is "The HUB of the Trent". It serves as a center for tourists, boats and fisherman.
The best part of our HASTINGS port stop was to share dinner conversation with two other Looping couples. The highlight of the evening was learning a new dice game...lots of laughing and stories into the night, with a spectacular rainbow over the River to end our wonderful day!
Good morning ... Waiting for Lock 13 to open with Thistle and Pura Vida on the Blue Line.
Water rushing out of the lock.
Our navigation course from CAMPBELLFORD to HASTINGS (Green Line).
Every Lock has colorful summer flowers, Lock 14 was favorite !
Reenie got to help open Lock 14.
The Trent Severn Waterway Poster.
"Cottage Country"...Very diverse and fun to make up stories along the way! A slide with amphitheater seating, who wants an ice cream cone on their front yard and a blue interior fishing boat?
