Dinner Cruise {Summer Bucket List}

Harrison and I went on the Dinosaur BBQ Dinner Cruise on the Erie Canal this evening. The cruise is done by Mid-Lakes Navigation, this particular cruise leaves from Dutchman’s Landing in Baldwinsville. We had an amazing time and can’t wait to do another cruise with this company. Below are some of the pictures we took. This post is pretty picture heavy but I wanted to share the best photos.

Lock 24, this lock is the 2nd most popular lock. The difference in levels is 11 feet. They pump water in to raise the boat up the 11 feet to go through then on the way back the water is pumped out to drop back down. It was pretty neat to see.
