Pictures from Bruce

[frandroid]

My pictures from our camping trip in the Bruce Peninsula National Park. We spent 5 days camping there. It was awesome. The pictures don't tell the whole story, but along with their captions, they tell teh pretty.

Since I can't put HTML tags in the gallery description, here's some googlemapping of the area, especially for the Vancouver folks who might be less familiar with it.

The general area where the Park is. (If you put it in Map mode, you see the Park, but its boundaries are in reality much larger than what Google shows.)
To the right, most of Georgian Bay, which is part of Lake Huron, which continues to the Left of the peninsula and Tobermory.
Vancouver, seen at the same scale, to give you an idea of the size of the bay.

ETA: Your keen reaction, readers, along with my own enthrallment at the Bruce Peninsula tell me that I should try to come up with a "Pirates of the Bruce"-type adventure film!

ETA2: I have now swimmed in Lake Huron and Lake Michigan. I've been reluctant to swim in Lake Ontario in the past, but since I was right outside a nuclear power plant when I swam in Lake Michigan, I should ditch my reservations and aim to swim in all five. Maybe I can even add a dip at Niagara Falls next time I hang out there too...

Me neither! I've often gone on the shores of Lake Ontario, as Toronto is right there (I mean, I even see it out of my apartment window), and it's not nearly as nice as in the Bruce Peninsula.
