Thirteen of us pilled into 3 different cars and headed to Canada to the Daneker cabin in Ontario. It was an adventure that none of the kids that went had ever done. Visiting Aunt Carolyn and Uncle Dan's cabin led to lots of excitement and it did not disappoint.
One of the things we did was take a boat tour of the Thousand Islands. We had to travel back to the US side to do so. We got to see many spectacular sights and enjoyed the humor of the guide.
We stopped at Boldt Castle and explored the grounds. Many changes to the last time I had been there and it was beautiful!
Back at the cabin, the newlyweds, Brandon and Alivianna had quite time some mornings while they did prayer and read their Bibles.
We played many games and ate together. I loved hearing the laughter and fun around the table.
We did some shopping at the nearby town, Westboro and had some ice cream of course!
We spent a day in Ottawa and saw the guard change and heard a concert by the band.
We had to get a picture of China town in Ottawa.
After stopping at the ChickfilA that had just opened 2 weeks previously (think crazy long lines out the door), we headed to the Royal Mounted Police Stables for a tour. Here is the gang inside the facilities.
The week was hot and humid so the 'black thing' got a lot of workout while there. Lots of laughter floated up to the cabin and screams when they saw the huge water snake (ick!)
I have to admit, I did take a few long naps but we did have some down time. And there was a trip to the emergency room with Becca who rebroke her toe and had to have it set....never a dull moment! We also used the kayaks, canoes and paddle boat to explore the lake. It was a fun time!
