In our reassignment of extra rest days leading up to Toronto we had scheduled a day off in Tobermory. However, last night as we lay awake next to a blasting car stereo, we learned it is neither cheap nor all that restful to camp in town.
In the morning we packed up and found our way to a public access beach and chatted with a local resident about our trip and his suggestions for the Bruce Peninsula. We spent a few hours rotating between the lake and the sand before taking in a double lunch. By late afternoon we were ready to push out of Tobermory and we found where we should have camped yesterday. Maple Ridge campground at Miller Lake is about 30km south of Tobermory, off highway 6, and provides ample space for a bicyclist to have a quiet night and a shower.
As you know, Alex has been hard at work in his quest to develop a mosquito deterrent. Today's photo documents his latest attempt to ward off bites while eating. Note, we are in the middle of an intense heatwave and we are both wearing fleeces. Alex added his bike helmet into the mix for added protection.
