July 4 – Centre Island

Happy Independence Day to our American friends!
Today we spent the day on Centre Island in Toronto.
We took the ferry ride over and walked to the amusement park.  When we arrived, there were not a lot of people, so the kids had a blast taking a ride and then running around the line to immediately get back on.  They went on the log flume ride, scrambler, bumper boats and a lot more!
After a small picnic lunch, we met up with Mark and Irene (and Coco – their dog) for a few more rides and some ice cream.  Then we walked to the shore of the island so the kids could dip their toes in Lake Ontario before we headed back to the city on the ferry.
It was a beautiful day and the kids had a great time.  Once again they went to bed tuckered – perfect.
Dave and I met his High School friends again for an adult-only dinner in Little Portugal (in Toronto).  It was a fun evening and we are glad everyone was able to find time to get together.
