BURRITT FALLS TO MERRIKVILLE

July 11- We left the dock to go to the lock at 9:00 am and just as we headed to the blue line the other boat we had traveled with yesterday had come into the blue line as well. We locked through and headed through the next locks until we got to the lock before Merrikville. The American boat had the same idea about stayng at the top of Merrikville Lock so when we attempted to pass him he pulled over in front of us. We called on the radio with no response so we waited our chance and passed him anyway. When we arrived at the Merrickville Lock there was another boat in the lock already so there was no room for the American boat and he had to wait for the next lock. He decided to stay at the bottom of the Merrikville Lock for the night as there was no room at the top. We enjoyed the little town with its cute little shops and restaurants.

A bit noisy here next to busy roadway

A very old home
I was amazed by this beautiful home
