In this episode, I begin from my campsite at West Montrose Family Camp and paddle south to Bingeman's Resort in Kitchener. My total paddling distance was 26.5km. I paddled under 7 bridges including the West Montrose Covered Bridge, the Buggy Lane Bridge, the Winterbourne Bridge, 2 Conestoga Golf Course bridges, Sawmill Rd bridge, and the Bridgeport Bridge. The municipalities I paddled through include Woolwich Township, the City of Waterloo, and the City of Kitchener which are all part of Waterloo Region. I made a quick stop for lunch at the Twice the Deal pizza restaurant in Bridgeport. After arriving at Bingeman's, I explored the park by foot and ate dinner at Boston Pizza.
