We woke up early early again to watch the sun rise. It was pretty : ) (Dan posted pictures on our DnK Blog)
Anyways - back to the day - we got back from the sunrise, had a hot breakfast (Dan had oatmeal, I had my 'Mighty Tasty Hot Breakfast' we each got to have berries on our breakfast....mmmmm.....)
We then decided to stay at Tettegouche another night. So we got another campsite (number 4). Once it was time for us to move, we decided to just carry the ten down the road - it was pretty hilarious!
We then decided to go to Carlton Peak once we had our new site reserved. HOW COOL! I felt like I was in a different world! All those birch trees?! Pretty awesome : ) After that we decided to head back to Tettegouche, but we stopped first for katsup - a must have for our Bison burgers tonight ; )
After we got the katsup, we stopped at Caribou Falls. Dan was pretty stoked for this walk. We got a little sidetracked as he was taking pictures by the stream that is down from the falls. So we decided to do some 'off-roading' and continue to walk up river, following a seemingly old path.... This turned out to be a minor disaster.... you see, we were trying SO hard to keep our shoes dry - they were the only pair of tennies I own, and Dan's other pair were already soaking from the day before (mine had already dried out!). So we didn't want to walk in the creek, but once we were scaling the side of a mountain/hill that was falling out beneath us, we decided it was time. Luckily, I realized I had my handy-dandy 'crocs' with me - so my tennies didn't had to drown ; )
Once we got to the falls, we realized that is was worth it.... only if we had time to swim in the pool a the bottom of it!! No one was down there but us (and Moses) - it would have been great to swim, but the off-roading took extra time and we had to get back to our campsite to move it!
We got back moved the tent WHOLE and then we were tired, wet, hungry, but we certainly had a feeling of accomplishment from the day. After our yummy Bison burgers, we went to the spot where Momo swam before and let him swim more - as well as Danny taking some pictures.
After than, Dan and Momo were frozen, so we made apple cinnamon tea, played Monopoly and went to bed : ) mmmm...... Oh - and we froze both nights - it got down to 50.... and we didn't bring a blankly.....
