Thunder Bay Day 1

We drove to Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada for the Labor Day weekend to visit my grandparents. We packed a lot into the weekend, and it was a lot of fun.

On Saturday, we started our day at Eagle Canyon Adventures. The park has Canada's longest foot suspension bridge, and it has a zip line.






After we crossed the bridges, Dad rode the zip line, while the rest of us walked to the bottom of the canyon to watch.


After visiting Eagle Canyon, we drove out to Ouimet Canyon. I slept in the car while Mom, Dad, and Grandpa walked out to the viewing platform. 










At the end of the day we drove out to a little town called Silver Islet. It used to be a mining town, but is now a vacation spot with various cottages lining the water. Some of the cottages are the original houses the miners lived in.

My First Popsicle

Mom bought some popsicles, and she decided to share one with me. It was my first popsicle. And it was the perfect treat for what may be the last hot day of the summer (it was over 90 degrees today).

I wasn't sure what the popsicle was at first.


I gave it a taste and wasn't sure what to think.


Then I gave it another taste.


And another...


And before I knew it half of it had dripped down my shirt and onto my legs!


I decided I liked it, a lot.

Cloudy Day at Lake Camelot

The last couple of days have been cloudy. Mom thinks it's been nice. She likes the sun, but it's nice to have clouds now and then, too. It rained yesterday. Before the rain came, Mom took me for a walk. We spotted some very pretty flowers.




I took a rest on a park swing. 



And I pointed out a bug to Mom.


Mom took advantage of the even light to experiment a little.






I tried chasing after these birds, but they were too fast for me. 


Then Mom had me sit in my stroller while she took more photos of birds because she was afraid I'd go running right off the boardwalk. 







As we were finishing up our walk it began to sprinkle. Mom had a few more pictures she wanted to take, then we got in the car and rode home.
