August 5, 2023 Killarney

A beautiful last day in Killarney. We enjoyed a swim at our campsite before the long paddle back to our van.

The kids enjoyed the steep dropoff.

And the paddling begins. It certainly was a long section of lilies to go through, a sort of nameless spot between two lakes. I certainly prefer lily pads over portaging, so I'm not complaining!
We took a break for lunch.
We almost missed the little gap to the stream which took us to the very last portage. We were not all happy campers at the last portage, but we all made it in the end.
The van, at last! Never has it looked so wonderful!
We spent our Saturday and Sunday with family. Nathan and Melanie drove up to join us in Owen Sound. It was so lovely to see the church there and experience what our family is settling in to. We really enjoyed our time there. So very very thrilled to have some of my family living close. :)

I would have loved to have seen all those water lillies. Such a beautiful spot.
