We went camping last week at Awenda Provincial Park (near Penetanguishene). We had a fair bit of rain, but managed to stay dry (or at least not too wet) thanks to our tarps, screen house and tent. We had a deer walk right by our campsite, but I think the kids were more excited by the butterflies that landed on their shoes.
We went on several day hikes and saw a great big snapping turtle on the trail. I learned about forest progression and Huron longhouses.
We went to the beach in the afternoons. The kids enjoyed playing in the water, and they made some new friends. I even got to do some snorkeling and saw a shipwreck.
We had a campfire most nights, and it was great to roast marshmallows and have smores, even if it resulted in the kids staying up way too late.
