We timed our arrival at Killarney for a Thursday, so that Louise could go to Mich's camp for a get together. Mich was having lots of people to the camp for the weekend, and we were in the area, so time to go. We could not bring Eevee with us, so I stayed behind with the boat and a list of chores to get done. Altogether the boat would be at Killarney 4 nights, which is a bit longer than normal for us, but the situation dictated it.
I stayed back on the boat, and worked my way through a list of small jobs that kept getting put off. Some cleaning, small installs, and a couple of small repairs.
Eevee followed me into the engine room while I was checking the engine oil to inspect and make sure everything was OK.
In between chores, I sat on the flybridge and read or watched the traffic in the harbour. Lots of boats moving in and out here, big and small, even a few float planes.
During the weekend they had to squeeze a sailboat in behind us, and we eventually had to move the boat forward to make enough space for their water taxi to land at the dock we were on.
Lots of BIG boat traffic here. Some of the biggest boats we have seen so far on the trip! Steady stream of boats coming and going all weekend. Great to watch.
To add to the chaos, the town was having their annual fish-fry weekend, so things were extra busy and all the docks were completely full.
Meanwhile, Louise was at Mich's camp on lake Panache.
Paulette and Jean-Yves stopped by the boat at Killarney on Sunday, and got a full tour. We then went for ice cream and walked around the town and harbour. A lot of the facilities here have been rebuilt recently, and the two resorts to the east of us are brand-new, and high-end. On Sunday night Dom, Mich and the kids brought Louise back to the boat, and we all went to the fish-fry for supper. They had set it up at the local community centre, using a covered hockey rink as the venue.
