Day 3 found us slightly more adventurous. We had a fire in the fireplace during breakfast (of course) and went swimming (of course) to start the day. We sent the kids to the playground armed with a phone and the map.
We had planned to walk around Fish Creek (a smaller town about 5 minutes away), but the crowds there frightened us away. So we went past Fish Creek to a Ephraim beach, which Kim's friend Beth had recommended. We didn't come prepared to swim, plus the water was crazy cold, so we waded and played in the sand.
After lunch at the condo, we checked out the resort's putting green and shuffle board game.
Quite frankly, I don't remember what filled the rest of the afternoon. Probably some napping and TV. Told you we relaxed a lot this trip.
That evening, we went to Pelletier's for a fish boil. This is a view of the cliffs from Pelletier's.
Laura tried out her camera skills:
They boil the fish, potatoes, and onions in some salty water, then have it "boil over" to get all the fats and scum off the top (and impress the guests and soil the atmosphere), then they bring it back to the kitchen, then serve it to you at your table. It was surprisingly delicious!
Then we went to see Planes: Fire & Rescue at the Skyway Drive-In.
We had a great time. Adam gave up about halfway thru and slept across the bottom of the blanket with Jim's foot for a pillow.
