actually it is the parks fault.
It seems like those rangers are obsessed with over enforcement (power trip)
last weekend at sandbanks the guy gave me a parking ticket because we arrived after the gates were closed and couldnt obtain a permit. after some arguing at the front gate they finally took it back.
also my sisters site got a ticket for the site being "too messy" even though they had it clean in like 5 min flat. |

I have been saying that I want to check out Tobermorey for years, but unfortunely have not.
Anybody been there? |
i was just up in Tobermory last weekend and it was spectacular! Mako - it IS in fact known as the canadian scuba diving capital and yes there are numerous shipwrecks around the peninsula.
i was also at the Elora Quarry last weekend and it was great to go swimming there. i don't know about the liquor laws but it seemed like everyone there was drinking including me! :D
if anything, i'd like to go back to the Bruce Peninsula. on the drive up there there are quite a few provincial parks right along the shores of lake huron and they are super nice! on the other hand i would also like to check out algonquin park. i was there in the winter and had a fantastic time. just BEAUTIFUL!!!
if we want to organize a TA camping trip, count me in!
Elora Quarry
unfortunately i don't have pics of Tobermory b/c when we got there it was pouring rain. but i'm going back for another road trip in august to attend a wedding on Manitoulin Island so we'll we passing through Tobermory again to catch the ferry over there. really looking forward to it b/c we didn't have nearly enough time to check out this incredibly gorgeous area.

no no. the park was open, it was 2am so the front booth was closed and no way of obtaining the permits. |
