Last Camping Trip of the Season

We embarked on our last camping adventure a couple of weeks ago, at Voyageur. I've always heard not such great reviews about it but it was actually pretty nice. 

We had the whole park to ourselves for three days. We got to scope out all the really good campsites for next time around. 

Seeing as it was Thanksgiving long weekend, we were happy to have the quiet time there, before everyone showed up.

By Saturday morning, the place was packed! Our neighbors were having a big family reunion, with more cases of beer than I'd ever seen in my life. I was a little scared at that but Richard saw it as an opportunity to pretend to be a long lost family member. They were actually very quiet after all.

So what did we do with our time?

We walked a lot...

Ate and cooked A LOT!!!

but most of all....SLEPT A LOT!

Even Lexi was lazy...

Til next season!

In the Flesh

Thursday was a very exciting night for me! After all these years, I finally got to see the living legend, Madonna! hehe She brings back many fun memories from when I was little. It was great to finally see her.

Our tickets were awesome. Parking and dinner were included. Supper was at La Mise au Jeu, which is a private club at the Bell Center. It was an elegant place with tons of food! We even left with some cool Madonna gifts :)

We went to the concert with a customer of Richard's from Telus, and his wife. They were really fun, and we shared lots of laughs. I got to brush up on my French as well :)

It was a surreal experience once Madonna got on stage... In a nutshell, she's in serious shape! She was going strong throughout the whole show!

She played quite a bit of guitar, jumped rope double dutch style, made some cheap shots at her soon to be ex husband Guy Ritchie, and managed to squeeze in some political propaganda. She even took a request from the audience. The light show, and of course, her dancers, were incredible too.

The concert went by too quickly!!!

I also went to the Home Opener with Richard. Mtl. played Boston.

The game was so close but of course we won! There was a shoot out at the end, which was my first time seeing one live...talk about pressure! It was great!

P.S. Not my pics above...it was very clear on the tickets that we weren't allowed to bring cameras...I respected that, even though no one else did! :(
