We all woke up early Saturday morning, and Robert announced that we were heading out for the day, but would not share in the whereabouts of our outing. Robert packed up the car and 30 minutes later, we arrived at a gorgeous lake, surrounded by mountains and trees, and it brought me back to my summers spent on Three Legged Lake at my cottage, and we had such a magnificent day. Such a great area, with a large play area for kids, complete with water trampoline, inflatable climbing structures and pedal boats with slides attached available for rental. This time, we did not opt to take part in the play areas or boat rentals as it is more suited to kids a little older, but chances are good that Andrew will just love it by next summer, when I'm quite sure, he will be very confident in the water. We finished the day off with a late lunch at a great casual restaurant on the lake, which was especially a nice treat for me as I did not have to prepare a single thing for this outing.
This day was another display of the pure beauty this country boasts. It was a nice change from our frequent trips to the beach, and though Robert prefers swimming in the ocean above all, I am a lake girl at heart and just loved the feeling of swimming in the refreshing salt-free lake water. (when Robert advised Andrew there was no salt in this water, like in the ocean, he then asked if pepper hurts his eyes...thinking that if it wasn't salt water, it must therefore be pepper water!!!)
