Hiking and Rock Climbing

Yesterday was so much fun!!!!!!  We got a picnic lunch and set out on a hike.  James was so excited!  He loves to take walks with us and the picnic was an added bonus.

We started out hiking up a ski hill.



When we got to the top the view was so pretty.  James was impressed with how high we were, but Mike said just wait!  We started on our hike.  This involved a lot of rock climbing.  We all I loved it!!!!!!!






When we got to a trail we found lots and lots of wild blueberries!!!!!  They were so tasty!  We all had to eat our fill.







The we continued on.  It started to rain a bit, but we were protected by the trees so we didn't get too wet.  James finally asked if we could climb up on a high rock for our picnic.  We found a good one and had our lunch.





After that we started to head back to the car.  The wind was starting to get chilly and we had awhile to hike back.  So off we went!






Then it was back down the ski hill.




We walked along a path near the car and found wild raspberries.  Once again we all had to eat our fill.





James picked me a lovely bouquet of wildflowers along our hike.  We brought them back to the room and put them in water.  It brightened up the hotel room and created a wonderful memory for me.




Today we are going to have lunch with Mike's grandmother then we have to head back home.  Our visit to Sudbury was fun and we will be coming back again.  James said he loves it here and he has decided that he wants to be a miner when he grows up because you get to find all sorts of rocks and maybe even gold.  Its been a wonderful family vacation.
