Write Up:
As Jason, Amanda, myself (JennP), Natalie and Ben left for Awenda Provincial Park the Friday night of the May Long Weekend, we were all eager to get out of the city. Luckily, traffic was minimal and we arrived in Midland, about 20 minutes from our final destination, around 8:30. Hungry, we settled on a local establishment Scully’s Crab Shack for nourishment. In the hour and half that I took for our meals to arrive, Ben and Natalie showed up in the second vehicle to meet us for a drink. Saturday turned out to be a beautiful sunny day. After a hearty breakfast, we strolled along the beaches of Georgian Bay, and explored the campground. After lunch, Ben and Jason decided to check out a local golf course while Natalie, Amanda and I relaxed in the sun, read, and played Frisbee on the beach. Saturday night, although the weather turned rainy and chilly, we entertained ourselves by chatting and playing cards. Sunday was a cool day, and so made a trip into Penetenguashine for some errands and then hiked some of the trails in the afternoon to stay warm. By early evening, the skies had cleared, making way for a beautiful evening. Monday morning, we enjoyed a relaxing breakfast in the sun, and then packed up leisurely. On our way out of the area, we stopped to enjoy a drink on the patio overlooking Georgian Bay in Midland at Scull’s Crab Shack. Thanks to all for a great weekend!!
