May 24- Parry Sound Trip Report

This was written quite a few weeks ago, but did not get published!




We spent the first long weekend of the spring/summer at Parry Sound KOA. We traveled with our friends, the Herliheys (in their camper) and the Connells (in a Kamping Kabin.)
All you really need!

Bus packed and ready to go!

One of my favorite parts is driving!
Sharing the passenger seat.

We arrived Friday in the pouring rain. We were spread quite far apart, but our site was fairly easy to get into. We set up and it looked like the rain was going to pass. Then it started to POUR! The kids didn't care, and rode their bikes through the mud.
Lunch of champions.



Saturday was a beautiful day, we actually spent it at the POOL. We chose this KOA because of the amenitieis- dog park, mini golf and heated pool (as early as May). The kids loved it. They served free ice cream too! We relaxed and sat around the fire.
Daddy was voted to go swimming with Toad.


This KOA would be more on the "woodsy" side-- my husband likes concrete and asphalt. It did have gravel roads and trees, but it was pretty.
We enjoyed campsites, laughing, some cold beverages and some great company. The kids (6 of them) enjoyed having free reign on their bicycles, played some mini golf and bought junk at the park store.
The kids loved the wagon ride (they rode it several times) and the outdoor movie and popcorn!



Partty sound is fairly close, but siince our Toad was out of commission, we didn't have a vehicle. It didn't bother us at all!
I liked this KOA. The Kabin was pretty cool! Bring your own linens, and you are set! I also enjoyed some of the amenities, even though it wasn't as fancy as some of the other KOAs we have stayed at.
We came home Monday, and back to reality.

Even Don enjoys the bus!
