In Search for the Beach

I really wanted to take the kids to the beach before the summer was over. We`ve been so busy that it`s been hard so a close second was to head down to Lakeshore.

Traffic was a mess because of the CNE, but by the time we managed to find parking and make our way down to the boardwalk, it was well worth it.

The kids had fun running around in the grass and lots of spectators were sitting by the water watching the air show. I packed some light snacks for us. The popcorn was a hit. Check out the kernel on Claire`s chin.

We headed down the boardwalk to the playground. Here`s Claire checking out the wood chips.

Thaiana pushing Claire on the swings. These two just love hanging out with each other! Look at the joy on their faces.



Our attempt to get a photo of Isaac and Claire.....who is not interested at the moment!

There were also lots of swans on the lake. Claire loved looking at them. Here`s a close up of one.

We later got some pizza and ice cream for dinner and then headed home. On leaving, Isaac asked why we never came down here more often (since it`s close to home and there`s lots to do). Very good point!! We`ll try to squeeze it into our schedule again soon.
