Cottage Trip Aug 15th to 17th

It’s been a little while since I’ve posted anything mainly because I’ve been pre-occupied. I won’t say too much in this post but will share a few pictures. Two weekends ago I was invited to my friend’s fiancés cottage near Minden, Ontario. It’s about a 2.5 hour north-east drive from central Toronto. In total there were 15 people up at the cottage and it was an amazing weekend. Lounging around by the lake, drinking, bonfire and lots and lots of water sports.

Here’s the view from the dock, breathtaking is all I will add.

Here’s a picture of the cottage with a few people on the docks. This was taken around noon on Saturday. There were a few of us on the boat and a couple more somewhere else doing something else.

Kevin and I riding “Bob”. Basically you sit and hold on while the driver does sharp turns and tries to throw you off.

Usually you end up in the water….

After dinner on Saturday, we headed into town for ice cream. If you ever pass by a Kawartha Dairy, stop in to get some ice cream. They give you massive scoops for next to nothing. Way cheaper than Ben & Jerry’s or Baskin Robbins and much better in taste.

After ice cream, we had a bonfire by the cabin until the wee hours of the day. Nothing like some good cold beer and s’mores!

Sunday was departure day but the weather was too nice to leave right away. So instead everyone went back into the water. “Tubing” sounds like a leisure sport….

but when you hit those waves at a good pace, the water stings! Regardless, it was a ton of fun!
