Watery Wednesday
I spent many days traveling for the last company I worked for. One trip I made several times a year was over to Bellville, Ontario. Bellville is right on Lake Ontario and they have an amazing water front.
Belleville is located at the mouth of the Moira River on the Bay of Quinte (Part of Lake Ontario) in southeastern Ontario. They have done a lot of work at the water front and there is a great walk way for a couple of miles with lots of parkland and wildlife to see. Sir McKenzie Bowell, Canada's 5th Prime Minister was born here. This town turns out great hockey players too! The Hulls, Bobby, Bret and Dennis were all from Bellville.This is where Avril Lavigne was born and grew up in nearby Napanee and many other talented people both in sports and the arts.
I love the colour of these!
Plenty of places to sit and gaze at the water.
There is lots of wildlife to be seen. Here out on the bay is a Blue Heron and a few ducks waiting on their dinner.
Along the pathway the is a huge plaque commemorating the rail road in Bellville. It was quite striking!

Thanks for the tour. The sunrise photo is spectacular.

Such a beautiful place, and a welcome change from our mole like existence, sleet, snow and bitter winds....Hugs...
I have never been to Bellville. How silly is that! It's beautiful!
Gorgeous photos.
I agree - that sunrise is just gorgeous!! I will have to check out the waterfront in Belleville - in summer, though, not this winter weather!
Beautiful photos. You make us want to be there.
