First Family Adventure Trip
by mzcanoe
We slept in a bit and then enjoyed a nice lazy pancake breakfast. After breakfast we headed out on a slow paddle/exploration session around the island we were staying on. We explored the other campsite, which was still empty, and did a little fishing. Our son caught the only fish of our entire trip-definitely not a keeper.
We headed back to the campsite for lunch and then spent the afternoon napping, swimming, reading, and playing cards. Late afternoon we hiked the trail through the woods to the sandy beach side of the campsite/island and explored the little cove. The boys found frogs and a baby turtle.
We enjoyed a delicious dinner of Chicken Pad Thai and s'mores nachos and then headed out for an evening paddle. We attempted a little fishing and then found a small rocky island to enjoy the sunset from.
Thanks to our weather radio we knew that wind/rain/storms were in the forecast for the following afternoon, so we packed up everything except our tent and sleeping gear in hopes of an early start the next morning. After a game of yahtzee in the tent we braved the mosquitoes to take in a bit of the meteor shower. We saw a few shooting stars before fleeing the mosquitoes.
