So I thought it might be worth recapping some of the places we have seen on our adventure.
Obviously, we saw a lot of Petawawa and it's neighboring town Pembroke. My favorite things from these places? The bakery in Petawawa, I'm not even sure it had a name but it was delicious! The military museum on the base was well worth a look with lots of interesting artifacts. The parks and trails in Petawawa were amazing! They certainly have public spaces figured out and the library was a weekly trip for us.
In Pembroke, Brum's Dairy. Some of the best ice cream and dairy products I've tasted. I love buying local! The downtown was beautiful and they also had the biggest Giant Tiger store I'd ever seen. Hugli's Blueberry Ranch was also fun. It was almost the same as Park's Blueberries here except the blueberries were all organic as they don't do any spraying.
Another favorite was the Laurentian Dairy in Deep River. Great ice cream and the biggest hotdogs I've seen.
We spent some time on Muskrat Lake near Cobden visiting relatives. They had a beautiful park in town where you could camp overnight.
That's one thing I noticed that most towns had a municipal park that offered overnight sites. I think that's a great idea.
We toured around through lots of other small towns like Golden Lake, Killaloe and Barry's Bay and we were also lucky enough to be in the area when the Chalk River Medical Isotope facility had its first open house in 10 years. It was neat to see but never at any point, did you come close to actually seeing anything remotely nuclear.
I'm sure we'll have lots more adventures in the years to come but right now I'm happy to be settled again.





I'm glad you guys had fun. Those towns sound amazing! I wonder if FOTR know about all of those free free overnight camping parks. I love blueberries. I'm not sure I've had organic ones thought. Mmmm...
