Last hoorah


So we did our last hoorah of the summer. We decided at last minute to head over to Revelstoke. From there we took a road to Galena Bay to catch the ferry. Then we had a short drive and landed at Halcyon Hot springs. We enjoyed the warm pools (with the boys this time)...what a different trip from the time we had been there for our anniversary! It was SO much busier (we just missed a huge tour bus load of people)! and of course having the boys with you makes it a little less relaxing. Though even they were laying on their backs and floating round and around...we just had to watch them and couldn't do it ourselves!!
We drove back to Revelstoke that evening and slept over at the Swiss Chalet Motel. We highly recommend it, as we liked that we could drive/park right up to the door, the room was clean and came with a cot for our extra child, had a yummy breakfast provided, and a free pass to the aquatic center. So after a good sleep, we went to the train museum, and then the swimming pool. Greg and I were pretty exhausted, but overall it was great to get out one last time before we're all back to the grind of the school schedule!

(I think that was the most links I've ever used in one post! Maybe I should write a separate blog entitled "Things to do with your children in or around the Shuswap", complete with pictures of course!)

Sounds like a fun, jam-packed weekend - I love it! Our boys loved that train museum a couple years ago.....we should probably hit it up again next time we come through. Happy back to school to you!
