CAMPING W/ BAE

IMG_6532.JPG

Camping in Tobermory! It’s been on my summer “to do” list since 2014 when I saw a photo of a sunken ship in bright blue waters, never in a million years believing that it was taken in ONTARIO. 

Although the water was FREEZING, it was one of my favourite weekends… ever. 

We drove up with a tent, some confit duck, our trusty cast iron and a huge bag of peanuts. I thought the peanuts were for Zach to snack on, but truly they were for our new furry friends, little chipmunks.  <3

We Stayed at Lands End Park, located pretty close to the marina and ferry that go to flower pot island and the northern most point of the Bruce peninsula. Such a great location because our campground backed onto trees and we looked out onto the water, we really felt like we were on our own island. 

After a 4 hour drive from Toronto to Tobermory, we were so happy to arrive before sunset and set up camp. 

 
 

DAY 1


Night one we played crazy eights, drank too much whiskey and ended up staring at the stars on little beach down the road. Did I mention you could see SOOOOOO many stars?! I was actually appalled that you could see millions and millions when theres no city lights to interrupt. 


DAY 2


 

 

The next morning we woke up to the sweating sun and chipmunks running rogue outside of our tent. Had ice cream for breakfast, made friends with a chipmunk and happily revived by Caesers, we got ready to head to the “Bruce Peninsula”. There's a beautiful trail that's about an hour long and leads to this picturesque place called “The Grotto” Loaded down with a bottle of wine, our swimsuits and a camera, we begun . *The photos really don’t do this tail justice, it was beyond entertaining and looking back it really was like something in Greece.

All in all , Tobermory is a gorgeous place to visit! I Definitely looking forward to going back & snorkelling around the sunken ship.
