Hot hot hot days

It has been very hot here these past few days. Sticky-with-the-humidity-global-warming-hot.

I escaped the heat in my little city this past Canada Day weekend to visit my family in the much larger and more southerly city of Toronto and the GTA. Out of the frying pan into the fire? Maybe, but I think the humidity there was a little less than in Ottawa.

Here were a few of our attempts to keep things cool:

1. Enjoyed a splash of pleasant (and only mildly polluted) lake Ontario.

It's amazing how big your little girl looks when she's next to an even littler one
2. Pulled an "Al Bundy": cold drinks + feet in kiddie pool.

We still have room for a couple more...!
3.  Watched a lot of World Cup inside a cool air-conditioned house.

Cozy Devils! Where is my spot?!
4. Forgot our umbrellas

That girl is having the time of her life
5. Became night owls

Happy Canada Day!

  1. What a great weekend! Every type of water based fun that could be had was taken advantage of. I particularly enjoyed the Al Bundy solution.
