The CSL Tadoussac Passes By

 So this was one of the ships that I wanted to stick around for.  She is one of the last Canadian classic lakers left on the Lakes.

I'm not sure where she was heading up from but she was heading to Two Harbors, Minnesota.
I'm pretty sure that she will pick up taconite while there.
And I'm pretty sure she'll take that taconite to Nanticoke.
You can see the subject of the next post behind her.
She makes the turn for the channel around Belle Isle.
I'll have to admit that she's a pretty nice looking boat.
I kind of like this view.
Anotehr angle as she continues along.
I think they've changed the top of the Caesar's Casino.  It doesn't look like the eye of Sauron anymore.
I do like the view of Windsor behind her.
Just a different view of Windsor.
So then I took the air and this is where things got interesting.
One thing about the Tadoussac is that she has a pretty interesting wake and you can see it from here.  I kept trying to stay ahead of her.
Around this point, my camera would free and I was starting to get interference errors.  But I kept trying to get pictures.
 The errors started to get worse, so I hit return to home on my drone.  It was that point where it got interesting.  I wasn't sure where it was heading, so I cancelled the return to home feature and guide it in manually.  It ended up hitting one of the trees behind me.  Fortunately, nothing was damaged but it was scary for a bit.  Best I could tell, it was the place where I sitting that was causing the issues.
