2:45 pm - Mitch with the World's Largest Loon in Newboro (Day 3)

It was another sweltering night in the tents last night, despite the strong breeze blowing through Narrows. Just about everyone in the camp is craving a real shower -- it's been 4 days now without! But tonight we're staying at Safari Marina and we're promised that we'll be able to have one there!

Yesterday, the kayakers pulled into Narrows around 4 pm. This was great since it gave everybody a chance to really wind down and relax for the night.

In case you don't know, there's a road crew of six vehicles and 7-12 people that are following the kayakers at any given time. They feed the kayakers and help set up camp each night. They do an amazing job and we couldn't do the trip without them!

The road crew always likes to do a bit of site seeing if there's time and going through Newboro, we couldn't pass up the chance of seeing the World's Largest Loon.
