We all gathered at
Lac Leamy (minus Karine, who had to work) to have brunch at Saint Eloi and to
bike and roller blade on the trails around the lake. Barbara got our name on the list, as there
was a long line up. Miraculously, just after the Chelsea
crew arrived, our name came up and we got right in.
Sam has pancakes (of course), while the guys went for le
Géant! David shared.
After breakfast, we got suited up for biking. Sam is really good with this vélo now sans
training wheels, but he still needs to pay attention to the right of way of
other users. David was pushed in the
chariot by papa on his roller blades.
Sam and David excitedly pointed out a Common Grackle and a
Mallard for Grandpa to see. Sam tried in
vain to see the ducks and cormorant
through the binoculars.
After circumnavigating Lac Leamy, we headed up along the Gatineau
River
We saw a STO bus cross over the train bridge. There were some nice birds - warblers,
sapsuckers, kingbird, cedar waxwing and northern rough-winged swallows.
We stopped along the lake to let David out to have a run
around before heading for 9 Lambert. We
had lunch and David and Papa went down for a nap. Sam discovered the joys of the hose sprayer
nozzle.
Maman got off work and came and joined us until David was
ready to get up and head over to the other grandparents for pizza.
