As promised we got to dip our toes into the icy waters of Lake Superior yesterday on our way to our Provincial park campground at Kakabeka Falls Ontario yesterday. Aside from the temperature (inside and out of the water) we weren't let down. It felt like we were on a coastal beach.
The campground last night was beautiful - clean, spacious, large, well treed sites, plus laundry facilities very close to our site. And as the name suggests, a spectacular water fall. Last night Katie and I surprised Scott & Emily with fresh baked apple turnovers and a fruit salad. Mmmmmmmm.
We are currently in Dryden Ontario where we'll spend our last night in Ontario during this trip. We're in a smallish campground which is very well kept - nice flower beds and water features and the lawn is immaculate. Katie and I grabbed the badminton raquets and headed for the net which was up and ready for use. A good time was had. The girls both learned how to play a couple card games tonight as well - I think I taught Katie too well though; she beat me in war twice!
Tonight it was Scott & Emily's turn to create a dessert for us all and they baked chocolate chip cookies and even provided milk in cups for dipping cookies into. Yum. We better not let this sort of thing turn into a habit.
Tomorrow we head out to Winnipeg Beach, Manitoba for a two night stay. The forecast there is 27 and sun tomorrow but 24 and showers on Sunday so we're hoping to arrive early enough to enjoy some of that heat and the water before Sundays rain.
Usually when I decide to head west I can hardly wait - it means a trip to BC. Knowing now that we're heading west doesn't carry quite the same amount of excitement cuz it means we're going back to regular life which includes the structure of work. We'll be home in one week.
