Lake Ontario Trekkers Cross Back into New York State

Today we crossed into New York! After a long day of riding to Kingston, Ontario the group shared Poutine before heading out on the Ferry to Wolfe Island. We had very strong headwinds crossing the 14 km to the other side of the island where we boarded the ferry to Cape Vincent, NY. Once we arrived in town the group descended upon the supermarket to buy food for the cookoff between team Claire/Kyle and team Jake/Mary. The judges (Stephanie and Jack) declared a winner the former, with their chicken corn chowder, beef Wellington, and Apple Pie desert! The group enjoyed an evening at the scenic Tibbets Point lighthouse hostel at the point where Lake Ontario meets the St Lawrence River.
