Peterborough

We got to Peterborough on Thursday evening. We set up camp and Beavermead Campground. It was a beautiful campground right on the shore of Little Lake. The children were not happy that it was too late to swim, but they did wade around in the water for a while and play in the sand. We had a campfire and roasted marshmellows until it started to rain.

The next morning we went to see the Peterborough Lift Locks. They are the highest lift locks in the world, well I think it was the world, maybe it was just in Canada....oh well....they are quite high. (around 78feet) We got to see them in action. It was quite something. We ate a quick lunch in the parking lot and headed off to Ottawa.
