A Day in Thunder Bay

Yesterday, after our visit to Fort William Historical Park, we headed to downtown Thunder Bay where we found the splash pad. Sierra took full advantage of the cool waters

and afterwards we walked along the waterfront and admired the views out across Lake Superior

and over to the Sleeping Giant.

This morning we headed over to the Terry Fox Monument and overlook.

Its a really fitting tribute to an extraordinary person. After the memorial, we headed back into town to try the Sleeping Giant Brewery.

They had some really good beers there! We then had lunch at Boston Pizza, before a hike at the Cascades Conservation Area.

The Cascades Conservation Area is a popular swimming spot, but its definitely not suitable for young people,

so Sierra was a bit upset that we didn't let her swim there.

We hiked a short loop at the conservation area and at times got glimpses of the river.

Sierra would get her chance to swim a little bit later once we had returned to Kakabeka Falls.
