- daveB110ExplorerJust back home after 5.5 months on the road, south. Hard to stomach Cdn. gas prices, and (our continuing saga) the rise in BC Ferries' price to leave our city. With every price hike, they constrict our very souls. Contemplating a trip? I then figure in $340 immediately, just for ferries out and back home. Adding campground costs for a few days doesn't seem that bad.
Besides, being back home is its own reward. We may or may not take a summer trip.
But have fun Canada as, in our own way, we celebrate Queen Victoria, our longest serving Monarch! - Wrong_LaneExplorerWe are at the Kawanis Ocean Front Campground, St. Andrews NB.
Parked in an ocean front site. The sites are arranged so you drive in and have an unobstructed view of the Bay of Fundy out the front window. Fantastic!
It is a little chilly with the prevailing wind coming in off the ocean but that's a small price to pay. Down near freezing at night and only mid-fifties in the afternoon.
Great first trip of the season. - manitobacampingExplorerOff in the rain to a great spot called Great Woods Campground 45 minutes east of Winnipeg. Been going there for years on May long as it is close by. Always seem to forget something important first weekend out. Looking forward to doing nothing for 4 days.
- RygarExplorerWeather forecast isn't great for the island. Think I'll stay home and catch up on chores so I can go camping all summer.
- ejfranzExplorerStaying home, the lower mainland is a zoo with all the people out on the May long weekend.
- portlizExplorerCathcart Park on the St. Clair River just north of Sombra Ontario. First weekend since our return from the south. What beautiful weather for a May 24 weekend. Happy Camping all.
- minkos61ExplorerHeading off boondocking around Fort St James. Took an extra 2 days so 5 days total wahoo.
Ernie - eendExplorerHave to work, which is just fine cause they are expecting rain for the better part of the weekend., that is here in Alberta.
- 2003_colemanExploreroff to Sandbanks for the weekend - 5 years in a row now we ahve done Victoria Day there.
Usually great weather and no bugs - deadeye1ExplorerBrunch of friends get together, we rent a fairgrounds, do a huge BBque (pork, beef and turkey). On Sat nite the local 4H rent one of the building for a dance. On sunday morning all the men do a big breakfast.
Life is good!!
