At one time journeying to and from #Manitoulin by ferry was essential for local business, residents and anyone travelling to the Island. Many faithful vessels have served in connecting the South and North shores of Lake Huron, but today it is the @mschicheemaun which carries passengers and their vehicles each day in the warm season. The name Chi-Cheemaun means "Big Canoe" in the Ojibwe language and it has been in operation since 1974 as a secondary means of access to #manitoulinisland. The ferry received a series of upgrades in the last five years including a new dining room, forward lounge and entertainment space for live concerts, on board events and displays. In addition to this, it now also features a beautiful set of woodland inspired decals that have been installed along the smokestack and bow of the ship. As a resident of Manitoulin, I couldn't be happier about all the hard work and effort that has gone into rebranding and refreshing one of the island's staple attractions. It's been my pleasure creating this center spread custom colouring page for the Owen Sound Transportation Company in our new book, which highlights the MS Chi-Cheemaun in all its glory. If you're travelling through #Canada this summer, consider taking a ride on the big canoe and discover the world of hidden treasures that the #GreatLakes has to offer! 🚢🌊✨ . . . . . >>>See the full picture on my IG profile! . . . . .
