Leaving the Erie Canal behind us today
Last nights prime spot on the Erie Canal by Locks 34 & 35
Buffalo, NY Port entry
Erie Basin Marina, Buffalo, NY
After one week, 340 miles, 34 locks and 16 lift bridges, we left the historic Erie Canal and a unique piece of history behind us today! We were surpised to find out we had one federal lock on the Niagara River to go. This should be the last after at least 155 locks we went through on our trip. The Niagara River had a pretty strong current to fight, but I guess that's to be expected since the falls are only a few miles down river.Tonight we're spending some time in Buffalo, NY, preparing to cross Lake Erie starting tomorrow. The forecast looks good and we're planning on an early start to take advantage of it.
