Vacation Day 13 - Ontario Place

We finally made it to Ontario Place! Only took us almost 2 weeks to get back there. We left a little earlier today to try to avoid traffic and it worked. I made a quick bowl of oats before we left;

• 2/3 cup water
• 1/3 cup PC 5 grain cereal
• cinnamon
• raisins
• cinnamon honey
• Sahale snack mix-walnut

It was smooth sailing all the way into the city so we were there by 11:30. Even though it was still a bit early, we decided to eat our lunches so that we didn’t get to deep into the park and have a long trek with hungry kids back to the Jeep. I made myself a WW bagel with fig preserves, LC cheese, deli chicken breast and lettuce;

Pretty much the same as yesterday, but still delish. I also ate a handful of each gold fish and pop chips…

Then off we went on our adventure for the day!

It’s nice now that the kids are a bit older and we don’t have to really chase them around. While they were in the play areas, my hubby and I sat in the sunshine and waited for them to come back. I waited a lot of years to be able to do that! :) Here they are with the Kool Aid guy;

And waiting to get buckled into a ride very similar to “Drop Zone”;

We all went on a water ride where you go along a “river” in a canoe enjoying the sights and the final hurrah takes you up a steep hill like a coaster and down you go into the water. This is what the end of the ride looks like;

And here’s DD and after after getting off. We were wet, but not soaked!

After 4 hours of fun, it was time to come home. When we got back to the jeep I ate a refreshing mango:

We hit a bit of traffic but nothing crazy like yesterday. We’re really only on the major highway for a half hour…the other half is a normal 2 lane highway. Once we got to that point I pulled out a Nature’s Valley Fruit & Nut bar as I was getting pretty hungry!

We were sitting down to dinner by 6pm….good timing for us! I had an Yves Veggie dog…half in an English muffin with ketchup, Dijon and relish…the other half on the side. There was also grilled zucchini that I picked from the garden yesterday.

And to finish the meal off? I savoured a Cravings cheesecake that I came across in the freezer!

We’ve got friends coming over shortly for the SYTYCD finale, and I have a couple of PB & chocolate chip cookies with my name on them! Mmmmm…

I may be blogging at a weird time tomorrow as I have very fun dinner plans back in the city with a surprise companion and I have no idea when I’ll be home. You must keep a look out for my post, though because you don’t want to miss who I’m meeting up with!!!

Bye for now!!
