Victoria Day Long weekend

We had a fun filled weekend...

Got all set up for cycling, with Simon's training wheels off, and a baby seat for Claira on the back of my bike.  Paul put new tires on my bike too.

We did a Cycling trip, north on the Rotary Greenway trail which goes out all the way to Lakefield, and Simon found some crayfish claws, a whole dead crayfish, and a crayfish head, AND held a leech!!!


We celebrated my Birthday, had beautiful weather, I baked a Black Forest Cake, which turned out rather good.  Just 2 more adjustments to make for next time.


Also took a walk at Jackson's Creek park, which was absolutely beautiful, where I learned not to dress your kids in green when going on an nature walk!


We visited the Indian River Reptile Museum, which we learned has the largest venom bank in Canada.  They had a LOT of snakes.  It was quite amazing.

And finally, we kept the kids up late for the fireworks, and they loved it!  I was expecting a small show going from Ontario Place to Little Lake, Peterborough, but it was quite impressive.
