• Barry’s Bay

    August 26 in Canada ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

    We started the morning off with some vacuum entertainment. A few people were highly entertained watching the vacuum that was programmed to clean at 10am today. We then went for a swim.
    We attempted tubing again and like always, something went wrong. Jackson and Rob both went. As I was getting in, the boat ran out of gas. Luckily we weren’t too far from the cottage. I didn’t get to go tubing but I had a nice relaxing float back to the cottage while the guys rowed. We were already planning on heading back into Barry’s Bay for dinner so we were also able to get more gas.
    Before dinner, we walked around Barry’s Bay a bit. Exploring some of the shops. Not surprisingly we found Carley Fortune books in many stores. We also found one of the benches dedicated to characters from her books. My mom saw on Facebook that she was in one of the stores signing her books that we visited today at the same time we were in Barry’s Bay the other day.
    Dinner was at the Balmoral Hotel. We definitely got some attitude for the size of our group… when the restaurant was almost completely empty. The food however was delicious and everyone enjoyed their meals.
    We once again finished the night with Settlers of Catan after the kids were asleep. Mom won the game we started the night before and we started another.
