Dear Gilles,
I'm going to play catch-up on this blog - since tonight we're "camping" in a hotel room.
Day 114 from Sturgeon Falls to west of Hearst via Hwy 11.
I chose Hwy 11 because checking ahead, there were no campsites available along Lake Superior Provincial Parks - and thanks to Mark Carney there is absolutely no availability in the National Parks.
We paused at the Cochrane Polar Bear habitat, heritage village and snow-mobile museum.
We had a pizza lunch in the village. Even though it was a Saturday, they seemed to have a low selection, like they didn't expect to sell as much that day.
We did not see any polar bears. There are currently two in residence. It was +29, so they were probably hiding.
We spent the night at Fushimi Provincial Park. We were lucky to get a lakeside site. But the boys didn't want to go swimming because there were too many mayfly skeletons in the water. So they had showers instead. We also had to wear our mosquito net head gear to be comfortable. Dinner was Mr. Noodles and green salad. It hit the spot after the long driving day.
BIG THINGS ALONG THE WAY
Cow in Dymond - I'm sorry I didn't take a photo of this one because there is none on the internet.
