Spent the day in beautiful Kenora, ON (amalgomation of three communities -Kewatin, Norman, Rat Portage) This area is very similar to our Okanagan Valley with summers based around the many fresh water lakes. Fishing here is a big thing (perch, pike, pickerell and muskie). We took a 2 hour cruise aboard the MS Kenora around the Lake of the Woods (which is 70 miles long, 50 miles wide, has 65,000 miles of shoreline and is home to 14,500 islands). We had a local commentator telling us the history of the lake and its occupants, past and present -lots of the rich and famous, movie stars, govt. heads, etc. It was a sunny day so spent the entire trip out on deck.
