We are off.

We left Peterborough around 10. We had a few set backs. Starting with the shitter not being able to dump. Simon fixed it.

Then we were getting honked at coming the back way into havelock to get the kids. We pulled over and the bike rack had bend the frame and almost lost them all.

We grabbed the boys from mom and off to our first spot AchrayRead more

Achray Provincial Park Day 1
June 26, 2021 in Canada ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
First night at Achray. Site 11. If we were to come with another family. Use site 11 and 15
Rain all day!!

Was very impressed with the kids. Not one cared it was raining. They still rode their bikes and went swimming. The view at the beach was amazing. The beach is all water

Was to wet to have a fire. So after we swam we came in the trailer for dinner. Simon BBQ Burger with a side of fresh strawberries.

We played some games before starting to put the kids to bed. We played candy land, Gold fish, golf and trouble. Played one round of euchre with Addy and Cole

Kids said it was a good first day despite the rain and the long drive.

Everything feels damp

*no comfort station
*no propane refill or buy
* no last min food items
*does have ice creamRead more

Jacob - “ never thought I would be sleeping on wheels. “

We were up around 630, ate and headed to Barron Cannon Trail, home them Berm lake trail.
We went for a swim while Simon cooked lunch. We had sausage for lunch

We then headed to Jack Pine a trail.

We came home played a few games and then Simon rested his eyes and we started to explore the camp ground. Found another beach.

Once we got back to the site we got ready and headed to the beach for a swim before dinner.

We had run at the beach till Jacob threw sand into Cole Eye. Had to do a flush

We had pizza and burger for dinner with salad

It’s 630 and Jacob is ready for bed. He had a bruised ankle from rolling his ankle during the walk.

He’s laying down as we get the fire going to make s’mores.

Kids are all exhausted. I think will be early night for them!!!Read more

Luke has not stop talking this whole trip.

The beach is beautiful here. We have a private one across from our campsite and then the big one. We went to spend the afternoon at the big beach but it started to rain on us. Very overcast.

We came back to the camp site at 2 for a snacky lunch. Kids read. Coloured.

We decided to do s’mores this afternoon as it drizzled on us. Cole has master the perfect roaster marshmallow.

We went to the beach swimming again. The kids loved it.

We had chicken potatoes and Asparagus for dinner. We also had our first big breakfast with eggs toast and bacon.

We are hoping for some non rain days

Simon Convinced Luke to organized his tool set that was all over the place.

I got three only two pages of a book before the rain started.

We are off to Pancake bay tomorrow. Another moving day. Leaving early as we only have one night at Pancake bayRead more
