Different from home but in a good way

The adventure continues! Good Spirit Lake Provincial Park is in Saskatchewan and is an excellent place for entertainment, excitement and more!

First of all, the park rangers use all the wood that they chop down as fire wood for the campers. By the way, the wood is free.

Free wood!

Second of all, the campsites are flat and that is always good. It feels good to have a clean bathroom. That is what the rangers assure. The bathrooms are great! Many shortcuts through the forest make biking and walking fun.

Third of all, the beach is awesome! The soft groomed sand is great. Two groomed volleyball courts make it fun sports-wise. Four hammocks make the beach relaxing, a nice play-structure is used well and the nicely cut grass definitely stands out. Also, if you want to, there is a 7-10 kilometer boardwalk around the shiny water (when the sun shines on it.) I cannot dare not talk about the mini put just beside the beach parking lot. You can't pass up an opportunity to mini putt here. It is fun if you are alone or with friends and family.

Overall this campground is great!

Introducing the Family

This is my first post. My name is Nathan and I am a 9 year-old boy (almost 10) and can't wait for this trip. My older sister Chelsea is 12 years old and my younger brother Parker is 7 years old. I am looking forward to sharing pictures and stories with you over the adventurous year ahead! This picture was taken a couple of years ago so we are all a bit bigger now!

Velika Planina - Slovenia

Velika Planina, in a Nutshell This could have been Heidi's village Ever wish you were Heidi ? Well, it turns out, you can find the backdrop you need for your make-believe at Velika Planina in Slovenia. You can hike (a few hours) or take a cable car up to a high-altitude plain where you will find a village nestled on the lee-side of an ever-present windy peak. A hearty people live here - a tribe of herdsmen. They build unique huts, in an ancient way, and allow tourists to explore their space/land. This is not an adrenaline jolt, but it is quaint and unique and undeniably historical. Come for the views, stay for the peace and quiet. Getting Here The cable car runs fast and saves a lot of time and effort... we'd recommend it You can hike up to this peak from the valley, but it is pretty high at 1600m - a good slog on a service road. Alternatively, you can take a cable car up from Kamniška Bistrica . We did the latter - the kids wanted to 'save the...

Mt. Triglav

Mt. Triglav - At the Top of Slovenia Parker at the summit of Mt. Triglav The last major hike we did as a family was up Mt. Catamount in upstate NY. Actually, that hike was in preparation for summiting Mt. Triglav - the kids got new hiking boots, so we needed to make sure their new gear would work for each of them during Triglav's long haul of 12km in and 12km out. Mt. Catamount in upstate NY - June 2023 Triglav is Slovenia's national symbol - it is the highest peak in Slovenia (and was the highest peak in the former Yugoslavia). It's on the Slovenian national flag - the mountain peaks at 2,800m (9,200ft). Note the emblem in the upper left corner - the tri-peak of Triglav This is not the world's highest peak by any means - Mt. Kilimangaro, for instance, peaks at 5,900m... but Triglav is a very respectable climb, and one that puts you well above the clouds most days of the year. Some fun with a topside pic Most of Triglav is a hike... but the last leg is a climb...
