Easter 2013 at Deerhurst Resort

Lindsay's delectable Easter creations - all the chocolate bunnies' nests full of eggs for Sunday's hunt. We had these for dessert after Friday night's salmon smorgasbord.
Mrs. Bowden played Easter Bunny by dropping these goody bags in our room for us to find upon arrival - what a nice, and delicious, surprise! While Lindsay didn't witness frequent trips to devour the stash, frequent trips were made...even before dinners.
The local ski resort straight ahead - it looks bigger the closer you get. We explored a woodsy restaurant around the bend, where tourists stay and ski next door.
Just up the road on a first walk in the sun near Deerhurst Resort - a nice way to stretch the legs after a 4 hour drive.
This popular rocky point has been visited by "a many travellers" in all seasons for this view and its close proximity to the highway that winds through Algonquin Park.
Why take a small bite when a big bite is so much better? This rocky point served as a peaceful place to picnic on a lake in Algonquin Park. Curry/chicken/apple sandwich delight...thanks to Bonnie.
The top of the falls and terrifyingly close! It's hard to see, but this is as close as we wanted to get with the roaring water about 10m away.
This is a whole lotta me hugging a tree - but I was close to the falls and didn't want to fall - in that is!

Another shot from the bottom with the falls behind us. We saw people crossing these snow bridges and standing on the crescents for photo opts - we waited here for a great shot of someone falling in, to no avail.

A close-up of the crest of the falls - the water dropped under the ice bridge to charge the channel below.
Another beauty, "Ragged Falls." This giant waterfall was roaring and working away the cavernous walls of ice and snow. This is the mid-point, but we also saw from above and down below.


This was a medical emergency resulting from me thinking it would be a great idea to put the My "Little" Pony ring on Lindsay's finger. And little it was. Lotion was required to remove said ring from said finger. Here, Lindsay smiles through the pain and even suggests this moment as picture-worthy.

  1. Wait... one question... where did the My Little Pony ring come from? Err... nevermind. Some questions may be better left unanswered! ;)
