yesterday, started our morning at the campsite… quick breakfast and my daughter, oldest grandson and I headed to Rabbit Lake, on the outskirts of Kenora… 

it is a lovely little lake that is going to be the site for rowing at the Canada Games over the next few weeks…

we spent a good portion of our day here… waiting for the boats to arrive, watching the kids get them offloaded, and then various practices as they prepared for today’s Tops and Bottoms Regatta…

we headed into town for a bit of the time where we had lunch at the Boathouse, which seemed fitting, lol… while we were there it started to pour… there was thunder, and lightning was flashing… we had to go back and get our boy, but did stop for some chips from the Ye Old Chip truck… I mean, we were in Kenora, lol…

picked up our boy, came back into town and checked into the hotel… our room had a great view of the harbour…

back at Rabbit Lake the sun came out and we actually got to see some rowing… very proud of my grandson as he prepares for his first races…

after practice it was back to town for supper and an early evening…

he went out with his teammates and we had dinner in the Waterside Restaurant which is high above the water and offered stunning views… the food was very tasty…

not sure how many pictures I took, lol…

memory-filled day…
