Algonquin Sept 12

 We said goodbye to the tables and stockpile of wood
 And paddled back to the portage we zoomed through yesterday.
 This time though, we had to bring our gear across.
 I think we had two medium length portages only.
 The kids are always waiting for me...does that mean they need to carry more?
 We had an interesting section to paddle through after the first portage.
 Looks quite different. Lonely. Reminds me of the book "Lost in the Barrens".
 We made pretty good time and soon we were paddling on Opalescent Lake.
Time enough to go swimming.  Our site had a nice launching spot for swimming (not quite as steep into the water as usual) which the kids enjoyed.. What a beautiful site!
