We slept in until 9am! It was another glorious day at the lake. But the people had well and truly taken over our spot. The picnic table was covered with their stuff so my plan of making coffee outdoors didn’t happen.

We pumped up our cheap kayak with plans to go for a paddle. We bought it last year and still haven’t used it.

As Mike was finishing, we saw a campervan leaving a lakeside spot. So I walked over to grab it. At the same time, the people who we gave our spot to were trying to claim it.

I said we would take this spot as we currently didn’t have a spot. They said they were planning to take it. I said we have them our spot so it was only fair we took this one. And it was right on the lake, so we won in the end!

We took our kayak for a paddle. It was stunning on the calm lake, snow capped mountains in the distance, trout leaping around us. We don’t have a fishing licence so couldn’t fish.

It was a glorious day doing nothing. Our camping neighbours gave us some wood and Mike had a go at making camp bread in the fire. We only had self raising flour though and it has salt in it. As we added additional salt, it was too salty to eat.

We’ve decided to stay here a few days as Homer will be super busy on the weekends.
