PRINCE EDWARD COUNTY to BAY of QUINTE

We traveled from Picton to The Bay of QUINTE ...intending to stop in Trenton, but due to an impending rain storm we stopped in Belleville for the night. The following morning we continued to Trenton under windy conditions. 

Our stop in Belleville was easy. A very sleepy town (especially on Sunday night). The town Marina was nice and the dock hands (college students) super helpful. They even provided bikes for guests :) We rode the guest bikes along the River front trail and enjoyed dinner aboard Thistle. 

Trenton, also on The BAY of QUINTE, is the start of the historic Trent Severn Waterway. We spent the day provisioning in order to get an early start, weather permitting! We had a great dinner at a recommended Italian restaurant and then watched the USA women's World Cup Soccer game vs Columbia in a local pub...Yeah a "W" for the USA team!

We are very excited to start the Trent Severn...more about the Waterway on the next post :)
