Canoe-camping


This year, for our annual camping trip, we returned to the French River, but to change the itinerary, we canoed down to the Georgian Bay. On the first day, the headwinds were so strong, Sam and Andreas got thrown out of their canoe! We got to enjoy lovely scenery, sunsets and true camping food (pizza and chocolate cake). Although it rained hard at night (half the tents flooded) The weather was quite nice and on the last day, we took a break from paddling and used our rain coats as sails to float downstream!

All the kids

Beautiful scenery. I love the French River. Strangely enough, there are rounded smooth rocks near some beaches in Hong Kong that remind me of that kind of landscape.
