A Trip Up North - part 2
The continuing story of Steve and Iris and their kids on their fall trip....
Taking a Hike
After dinner Steve and Iris took the kids for a hike....
...along the shore at Old Woman Bay in Lake Superior Provincial Park....
The sun was setting quickly...
Then with the sun down, it was time to head back to the RV...
Damp Morning
True to the predictions, it had rained all night, and was still spitting when everyone got up...
Another Hike
With the rain holding off for a bit, Steve and Iris took the kids on another hike...
"Look at that view!"

St. Joseph's Island
With another night of rain, and more in the forecast, we started towards home, but wanted to check out the fall colours on St. Joseph's Island....
Steve and Iris were really enjoying all the fall foliage....
The sun even peaked out every now and then...
But the kids had had enough....
They weren't all that interested anymore. After having seen the first hundred or so red and orange trees, they all started to look the same to them....
...and they were bored...
the Big Loonie
Sudbury may have the Big Nickel, but Echo Bay, along the north shore of Lake Huron, has the world's biggest 'Loonie' - our dollar coin, so named because it features a loon.
With the kids getting increasingly bored with just driving around looking at coloured trees, Steve and Iris stopped in Echo Bay so they could get out and pose for some photos...

Pizza Stop
It was the last day of their trip, and the weather had improved nicely as they made their way home through the brilliant fall foliage in Muskoka....
It was getting to dinner time, so Steve picked up a pizza....
..and they stopped at a roadside picnic spot to enjoy it....
There's nothing like pizza, fries, donuts and watermelon for a quick child-pleasing meal on the run.
Then it was back on the road for the final stretch towards home....
