Tall Ships

In a fortunate turn of events, the Tall Ships tour of the Great Lakes made a stop in Kingsville harbour for the weekend. A mere ten minutes walk from the office, the festivities began Friday at lunch and lasted through the weekend.

Even right at noon on Friday, lineups were already sizeable as fans flocked down to the wharf and began clamoring for ship tours and sunset sails. With limited time, a few of us walked down from the office and met Jane at the harbour for a quick visual, though we were not able to stay for long.

Sadly, we weren't able to get any photos with ships in full sail.....alas. Still, a great opportunity that doesn't come around very often!
