Day 6 and 7







There's nothing much to report, except that we're covering fair distance whenever we have great weather.

Day 6 - Today we started at 6 a.m. and paddled all the way to an Island 10 kms from Benjamin island. We paddled for about 12 hours in total.

Day 7 - It's a little after 2pm and we're sitting in an internet cafe in Little Current. We hope to head to Killarney or an island close to Killarney today.
