So the last couple of days there has been a recurrent theme of flight and today I have continued the theme with this shot of a float plane at Georgian Bay.
We stopped off for lunch at Parry Sound and went down to the marina to explore a little. There were a few of these planes moored up, I have always liked the idea of taking off and landing on water and I was really tempted to take a flight over Lake Huron but there wasn't time to do it on this trip. Maybe next time. Just one of many reasons I want to go back.
This is a real lighthouse, and although it is quite small the perspective in this picture makes it look much smaller than it really is. It is situated at the marina in Parry Sound in the Georgian Bay area of Lake Huron. On the long drive from Toronto this was a good place to stop and take a break.
As well as the lighthouse there was the huge railway viaduct, boats in the harbour and float planes tied to the jetties, o plenty to see. Unfortunately the visit was cut short because of a sudden sharp rain shower so lunch turned into a picnic in the car before setting off again on the long trip along the Trans Canada Highway.
