Mean Round of Miniature Golf
Last weekend, we went to a new Great Wolf Lodge that opened in the suburbs of Charlotte. This is a hotel/indoor water park. Annaka is now old enough to ride most all of the slides. I was impressed.
While Jack had fun, the boy just really wanted to play miniature golf. So bad, he would brave the cold dreary wet weather outside to play. So, while Mom and Annaka were playing in the nice temperature controlled water park, Jack and I played a competitive round of miniature golf.

Water Park fun
On our last day, we enjoyed a water park near Quebec. Actually, it was a bit warmer than it sounds. Even more suprising was that it was a well put together park. We stayed all day and had a blast!

Quebec City

From a cabin in Maine to a luxury old Canadian railroad hotel, Quebec has been quite a change. We all have had fun walking through the city. We all like to pretend we can speak french. My french is like a bad Inspector Clouseau impersonation.

Deep in the Maine Woods
From Maine 2009 |
Spent three days in a rustic cabin in the Maine Northwoods on a remote lake called Namakanta. It was quite an adventure just getting there. There was 28 miles of gravel logging roads just to reach our lodge. Our TomTom thought we were in the middle of the woods.
No cellphone coverage, no Internet, no TV, no electricity.
So what did it have?
Plenty of wildlife. We saw a couple Moose, beaver, a fox, a couple bald eagles, lots of loons, and plenty of biting bugs.
A cool cabin. The cabin had gas lamps and a wood stove which we kept going. KK and I made the mistake of loading the wood stove before we went to bed on the first night thinking it would keep us warm through the night. This was a mistake. We woke up an hour later in a sweaty mess. We had to open all the windows to cool the cabin off.

The camp cooked all our meals which felt pretty decadent.
The kids got to have the run of the camp. Jack played along the shore doing battle with the lake with the rocks. Annaka made friends with the daughter of the owners of the camp and even had a girls sleepover.
KK and I got to do a little bit of kayaking and got the whole family in a canoe. We even hiked a bit of the AT which was nearby and met some hikers heading to Georgia.
A fun time had by all.
