Rather than make the entire run between Tobermory and Sarnia as we did on our way north, we decide to stop and spend 24 hours at Kincardine, ON. Kincardine is a quaint little town with a rich and colorful history. Since1948, every Saturday evening, rain or shine, the KINCARDINE SCOTTISH PIPE BAND takes to the street, and followed by a throngof tourists and locals, marches down Queen Street and back again to perform in Victoria Park. Legend has it that an early settlement family, lost in
the fog in Lake Huron, was guided in to Kincardine Harbor by one lone bagpiper! Since then, the bagpipers have become a much anticipated event. For dinner that evening, we eat at the Bruce Steakhouse, and have another wonderful time and a great meal. There are now only six of us, as the Pattersons are still up in Georgian Bay and won't be coming back for another week! We're all jealous at this point!
