Day 8


We puttered around the house all day, doing a little bit of cleaning... We decided to take out the garbage for a little while so our cabin didn't smell raunchy...what happens? no dogs, no four legged anything...a bunch of RAVENS got into the garbage and left a wonderful surprise outside of our front door...haha after a long morning...Susy went to go pick up some baking supplies and Christina and Sara went for a walk down the trails near Cedars Bay..

On the road there, we stopped to check out this opening...we're guessing it may have been a parking lot of some kind? We did not know what for, but the view was awesome!


The walk was beautiful, just look for yourself.....this is what we were surrounded by...snow covered forest...we both were speechless





Looking up to the sky from the trail


We finally made it to the bay, the snow was quite deep, about as high as our winter boots. The ice was frozen so we followed the trail across the bay :)


Looking back before we made it across the bay, we found the cabin that a family was telling us about...you can stay there...but he said you would have to make sure you bundled up...If we stayed there..we probably would be sleeping in snow suits...as it is now minus 26 tonight...We think we should just probably stay in our heated Cabin with heated tile floors :)





As we were walking home, Susy pulled up beside us and asked us if we wanted to grab a lift with her...but we were enjoying ourselves so we kept trucking...although Susy looked extremely warm..and both of our faces were frozen..snot included...this is our view coming back 



 When we got back after supper...we wanted Susy to teach us how to make her cookies...we have never been so thankful to have someone who actually knows how to bake...and not pull something out of a box...or bake brownies in a microwave hahahaha



While we were waiting on the cookies...Christina chit chatted with her pals via internet...we are thanking the man or woman (every night) who created wifi



Sooo I go to take a picture of the final product...and Christina decided to snatch a warm one...even though there were 12 other cookies that had came out of the oven earlier....she is now officially known as the cookie monster...we can say that because there's no such thing anymore...apparently its now the veggie monster (LAME)


Sooo Sara had Susy help make her Fiance a heart cookie....and although he will never get to eat it...at least he has a picture of it.....ALL three of us are actually creating this blog and eating it at this VERY MOMENT...sucks to be you Andre :)



 Susy had a Skype date with her husband Deryck and her family...she was so pleased to see them...and Christina and Sara were able to say hello! We all miss our families, fiance, and friends so much and we cannot wait to see all of your faces when we get back!!! We love you guys!

  2. I'd drive that far for a cookie like that, damn betcha! Now that we've figured out Skype, we'll do that more often. Photo #14: mixing cookie dough in a slow cooker. Tsk tsk. Gotta do whatcha gotta do, I guess.

  3. I agree with Trish, aka Mama Bear - you three are making us a bit nervous! Considering the ice cracks, the bear paw prints, the wolf paw prints, the minus 28 or so, the windshield scraping with a spatula! Have fun, learn lots, experience much...but do it all safely, cautiously and with an escape plan! Love hearing about your adventures - I hope all goes well and you come back to your homes much richer for your experiences. Love and best wishes to all of you,
    from Val (aka Sara's fiancé's mom)
    Your Pictou, NS family loves and misses you Sara!
