2 Days in Tobermory - not too hard!!!

As I sort of suspected while laying awake listening to the wind on a warm humid night the threat of hurricane force winds put paid to our trip to Flowerpot Island. After a lovely relaxed breakfast we headed to the beach. Yes, there are beaches on the Bruce Peninsula, and yes, they are nice on a day when the weather is delightful and improving by the minute.

Now the Tobermory beaches don't quite resemble what I would call a beach at home but in case you have missed it we're about 25,000km from Narooma Main beach and not planning to head that way for four months. And while it didn't have the pristine white sand or anything resembling a wave it was nice for us to put the picnic basket down and lay in the sun and take in some necessary Vitamin D.

 

Even more importantly the time at Singing Sands beach gave us the opportunity to catch up on the 10 weeks Julie and I had been apart. You might notice people in the background in the water and although they appeard to be having fun the thought of trudging over 200 metres (220 yards) of hot sand didn't appeal too much. So having satisfied our need for the sun we headed back to our Wireless Bay Cottage and the dock...



Starting to sound like a Muskoka Cottager aren't I? LOL!!!

Well the afternoon was full of nothing really important and it was gooood. Swimming, sunbathing, reading, eating and drinking.

 I know it's a cliche but it was just "what the Doctor ordered"...... Unfortunately we only had a day and a half of bliss but made full use of every hour before heading back to Gravenhurst via Marianna and Greg's at Collingwood. The reason for us leaving Tobermory was to attend a volunteers Pot Luck at Grace & Speed which was a good reintroduction for Julie to the town that is home for 2011.
