The Weekend

The last weekend of August had to include a trip to the beach, of course.

On Sunday morning we went to church and afterwards I enjoyed going for a walk in the park.

On Sunday afternoon we took a drive out to Cobourg where we enjoyed the downtown area.

I love what a cozy little town Cobourg is.

Cobourg Coffee House (in the background) is my favorite little cafe in this small town.

On Saturday evening my husband and I went on our first Date Night in Toronto in a long time. All our Date Nights during summer have consisted of a burger and a beer at home, no make up and a very casual dress code. It was fun to get all dressed up for each other again after a long break during summer.

We enjoyed dinner and drinks on the rooftop patio at Milestones.

How blessed we are to get to live here, I love this city! Next weekend it's Labor Day weekend in Canada and I'm already looking forward to the long weekend. This is the last week of summer break for all the kids, then the school year starts again.

Saturyay!

On Saturday it was warm and sunny in Toronto so we decided to take a drive to Cobourg, ON. I went for a swim for the first time this summer. Was the water warm an enjoyable? Absolutely not. The water was ice cold, but it was still a lot of fun to go swimming. We stayed in Cobourg until sunset and enjoyed hanging out by the marina.

A Day Trip to Cobourg

On Sunday we took a day trip to Cobourg, ON. I love visiting this cozy small town in Southern Ontario.

Cobourg has a nice sandy beach, the perfect place to enjoy an evening swim on a hot day.

Cobourg also has many nice little restaurants and cafes like this colorful place where you can enjoy some ice cream.

The town is built on the shores of Lake Ontario and has a big marina.

Summer is the perfect time to take little trips to different small towns, many towns that are asleep during winter come to life in the summer.
