I can't believe the vacation is coming to an end. Our 10 days have pasted by quicker than I would like but such is life... time flies when you are having fun :)
We have fallen in love with the city of Sarnia. You have everything you need in this quaint little port, Tim Hortons and Starbucks, a play park on every corner, a modern mall with all your major shops and you are never more than 5 minutes from a beach. We spent a few days at Mike Weir Beach Park, turns out Mike Weir grew up in this town. But thats only one choice out of many to catch some rays and play in the waves.
After another amazing home cooked meal last night we headed down to the Bridge to watch the incredible sunset over Michigan. The Bridge is a very popular park here in Point Edwards. A beautiful boardwalk lines the shore with periodic small beaches you can climb down to if you feel adventurous. There are two towering bridges over the St Claire River that connect Sarnia to Michigan. You could swim across if not for the strong current that runs from Lake Huron into the river. Many young local folk jump into the river to see how far it takes them before they can make it back to shore. Point Edwards is also home to a very modern Casino.
Today we spent a fanastic afternoon at the local waterpark where we tried out the bumper boats, a round of mini golf and of course some very scary water slides. Althouhg the humidity in this region is quite high the weather has been absolutely perfect.
We plan on visiting the African Safari Park in Branford on the way back to Toronto. I will post some pics when we get home.
