BRITISH COLUMBIA Thursday, June 7 Reid Harbor to Port of Sidney 1 ½ hours 11.6 miles

We had a short and uneventful trip.  The Port Sidney Marina is huge and it is quite a hike just to get to the marina office. 

We headed up to “Fish on Fifth” for our first meal of really good fish & chips.  Well, it was a huge disappointment.  Partly it was my fault for ordering the halibut grilled instead of fried.  I was thinking health instead of the reason we came here.  The fish was about 2” x 2” and ½ “ thick.  Just pitiful. 

Sidney has a street fair every Thursday night during the summer.  Fred is not much for shopping, so he went through ahead of me and discovered a vender selling truffles.  He went a little further and had some ice cream.  He always goes for the sweets. 

I went through at a slow pace and had a look at everything.  One of the things I purchased was an aloe plant.  Since we started out with problems I thought that it couldn’t hurt to have it aboard
