ALGONQUIN PARK DAY THREE

Fog rolled in Monday morning and with rain in the forecast for Tuesday we decided it was a good day to leave. Since we didn't have to be off our site until 2 pm we decided to hike the Lookout Trail after breakfast and if the sun came out do our last afternoon down at the beach.

The foggy cool morning didn't bother Owen any as he did his Kung Fu moves while waiting for breakfast. He keeps us entertained.

First stop on our hike was our attempt to move this bolder; not an inch. I think it will be there when Owen brings his grandchildren by.

If you can't move it then climb it; that bolder has to be good for something.

Once on top we needed to put Owen on a short leash.

Time to enjoy the view with Oma. I wish we could just stop time at such moments. We might do this hike again in the fall when the leaves have changed colour; it's even more spectacular.

After lunch we packed the trailer and moved down to the beach for our last dip in the water. While I took pictures an unexpected guest was just about to appear.

At the campsite just behind me this guy was spotted going into the bushes.

A few minutes later we came face to face. Next time I'll be sure to bring my telephoto lens. That's often the way it is when spotting bears, totally unexpected and unprepared but it did make our last day extra special.

We went home full of memories and promises to return next year for more hikes and hotdogs over the fire.

Thanks for stopping by and keeping an eye on us.
