Day 22 Kenora to Dryden

"On the road again" (Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson)

We left Kenora a little after 8 am in very light rain. We spent the first hour adjusting by peeling off layers of clothing that we had put on to keep dry. We also had to remove our glasses because they became increasingly difficult to see through. From Kenora to Vermillion Bay it was hilly and it rained intermittently. From Vermillion Bay onwards it was very flat and we had no more rain. Overall the ride was not difficult and we arrived in Dryden just before 4 pm. Distance covered today was 134 km.

Because of the rain I took only one picture with the cell phone so I am showing us on the road again. Nevertheless the scenery was great with lake after lake as far as Vermillion Bay. After that we saw farmland and cattle. 

We saw many vehicles pulling trailers carrying powerful fishing boats. Fishing season must have just started. Dryden or more correctly Wabigoon Lake is infamous because its fish should not be eaten by humans. Ice cream question- What toxic chemical do the fish in Wabigoon Lake carry?
