82.1 km - Total so far 4,204.63 km - http://ridewithgps.com/trips/5645773
It was a chilly 8 degrees when we left this morning and almost right away we were riding along the lake shore. We had gone less than a kilometer and already taking pictures. We figured that it might take us a while to get to Havilland. A few climbs in the first 15 kilometer or so but after that it was nearly flat.
Today we were more interested sight seeing, taking pictures and relaxing than getting to Sault Ste Marie in a big hurry. We have been pedaling for the last 7 days and a change of pace was required.
It has not been easy pedaling 1,200 km of Northern Ontario but the scenery we have observed over the last two days makes us glad we stuck with the route.

About the 'sand' .... the tourist web site I visited used the euphemism cobblestone beaches.
