Hannah and I went to Halfway Lake today, we got there at about 12noon and had some lunch. Today is back to school for the kids, so the beach and camp site was VERY quiet. There was one couple about half a kilometer up the beach and another person way down the beach in the other direction. The weather was beautiful, the only noise was leaves falling from the trees and the odd wood pecker and a chipmunk going about their business. Hannah dropped a few crisps much to her dismay, which the chipmunk took a liking to. We went for a row out across the lake, then swam and chilled for a few hours in the sun.

We walked for about two hours, at the end of our walk we saw a snake, a Garter snake. This is the first wild snake I have seen in Canada, spotted by Hannah. Photos

The next morning we visited the Visitor center and went and had a swim in Lake Huron then off to Parry Sound to catch the cruse. The cruse left at 1 and lasted about three hours, half an hour they announced that there were a couple of people from the visitor center at Killbear […]
