Cheese at last on At Last!

Cheese at last aboard At Last!

It was only Compliments Camembert but creamy, in a generic sort of way, yet pretty good for mass-produced cheese. Wonder who makes it for Sobeys et al? Must be someone in Quebec.

Eating well aboard At Last!

As usual when we cruise, we’re enjoying fine meals aboard At Last! such as this plate of grilled shrimp with red peppers, zucchini and cremini shrooms.
We’re still trying to perfect grilling steak on our small Magma. With this T-bone we tried 3 and 3 minutes, with the first minute at high heat and the rest at medium. Liberal use of Barberian’s Steak Seasoning added a nice touch. Next time we’ll try 5 minutes in total to deliver the beef a tad less than medium rare.
A special treat was this fabulous butter tart made by Mary Wood, the pastry chef at Jamie Kennedy Kitchens in Toronto. We warmed it on the barbie wrapped in foil.
Sunset ends a wonderful day on the hook in Sandy Cove on the Bay of Quinte near Belleville, Ontario. Our plan is to slowly cruise around Prince Edward County where, every June, we organize The Great Canadian Cheese Festival.

At Last meets At Last!

We couldn't believe our eyes as we entered Fraser Park Marina in Trenton at the start of the Trent-Severn Waterway. There was another At Last docked just ahead of us.

The bigger At Last is a Meridian 37 owned by a couple from Manotick, en route to Cobourg.

What a nice surprise to begin our Bay of Quinte 2012 cruise!
