We had pancakes and maple syrup for tea, which was very yummy.
Steve was busy all morning, or so he told me. Whenever I saw him he was sitting in a chair on the side of the lake doing very little. Fishing, he calls it. I thought he might like a book to help pass the time but apparently he wouldn't be able to read a book AND watch the rod at the same time - something about multi-tasking......
Anyway, he caught a Tesco-size fish (1 pound in weight, the sort we'd buy for tea in England) and a more reasonable size (3 and a half pound).
The boys were happy spending the morning riding their bikes, reading books, making origami shapes and so on. I enjoyed reading some more and doing some cross-stitch.
After lunch we walked further along the side of the lake to see our friends Greg and Anna who were due up with their two boys and caravan this weekend, but couldn't find them. We weren't sure if they hadn't come, had come and gone home early, or had camped in a different place.
In the evening we had chicken and pasta and triple chocolate muffins for pudding.
Steve went fishing again through the evening and caught two more good-sized fish.
The photos show Steve being "busy", comparing the Tesco-sized fish with the ones we have got used to here, and a tree on the campsite with huge pine cones growing on it.
