I am well aware of all the events and festivals going on this weekend in the city, but I'm saving my well deserved long weekend for a trip to the cottage. Probably one of my favourite places in the world.
Cottages are awesome because you can wear your bathing suit all day. It's the first thing you put on in the morning, and don't change out of it until the mosquito's come out at night. Bathing suits are a rarity in the Great White North, and we only get the chance to wear them outside 3 months of the year.
My cottage is particularly awesome because the lake is warm, there are enough open spaces for water sports like tubing, wakeboarding and water skiing, not to mention "the cliffs".
The cliffs are actually a private island owned by a nice old couple from Brockville. People have been jumping off these cliffs into the plummeting waters below for years, since my parents were wee ones, and went out with their siblings.
So basically, what i'm saying here is that I'm super excited for the long weekend, the swimming and hopefully the tanning.
I hope all your weekends will be just as aweomse, and if ur staying in the city, here are some events that may be of interest!
