Site #16 - $28 (x3), p/w, but boil water, wifi slow, poor at site
The great camping experience continues. The weather has been awesome. Although, we had quite the thunderstorm on Tues. night. It started rumbling as we sat by the fire and we were treated to quite the display of sheet lightning. It poured on and off overnight. We had planned to move on Wednesday, but then decided a 'drying out' day was in order. It turned out to be another perfect sunny day. We biked along some of the Trans Canada trail and we checked out another community just outside the park. These mushrooms are a common site in this area. I'm thinking they may have seen a lot of moisture here this year?
We checked out of what felt like our very own private campground this morning and we are now settled in at Manitou Beach Regional Park. Our last memories from here go back to 1996 and our second outing with our old 5th wheel. Ron took out a sign post backing in to our campsite and it had to be 're-planted'-- lol... We met up with Ray Finlay & Frankie that camp trip and we played a lot of Canasta between trips to the spa. Good times! We were back here in 1997 with the Finlays and again ourselves in 1998 but we haven't visited since. We are looking forward to getting reacquainted with the townsite tomorrow and hopefully a soak or two in the mineral pool.
