Teacher Exchange weekend at YMCA camp Wanakita 26th February - 27th February




The teacher exchange foundation organising a winter 'camping' weekend in the forests north of Toronto.  We stayed at a YMCA camp 'Wanakita' and had a fabulous weekend exploring all the outdoor winter activities. We drove over 3 hours north of Aurora, to just south of the township of Haliburton, camp Wanakita is located along the beautiful Koshlong Lake.  I think I am just going to let the photos to the talking  - such a magical winter weekend!

Snow shoeing through the swamp!









The tabogganing wasn't just for the kids

The mattress was much more fun!

Skating on Koshlong Lake - wow!

It snowed over night - magical

Our cabin accommodation

WOW!

Waking up early to snow falling! Yep I raced out in my PJs

Perfect for making snow angels

You can never be too careful!
