I’ve been to Cardinal, Ontario many times in the past but never got to explore the wonderful parkland there. It’s well worth the trip. There are lots of people around, but not near the cache.
Though now we have the St Lawrence seaway, two older canals run through the town. There used to be some mighty rapids at this point, and the water still flows very quickly through one of these canals. The day we were there teenages were jumping off a bridge, and letting the current take them quickly downstream. This didn’t look like a very safe practice to me but there was even a mother taking part in the fun.
In another area, many scuba divers could be seen, both in and out of the water. It’s a very popular spot for diving as there are several sunken vessels in the area. There is no need, however, to dive to see the remains of a steamer, Conestoga, which sank on May 22, 1922 outside Lock 28 of the Old Galop Canal.

I think I'm going to start adding the waypoint name, in case anyone wants to follow in my footstesp. All you have to do is go to http://www.geocaching.com/ and enter the waypoint name.
I'm going to add them to the end of each entry.
They look like this:
