moon shadows winery/haliburton part 2

back to the campground.
i have moved inbetween the last post and now, thus the MIA status
more on that later

thats a map of our campground.  the dark line on the right indicates the road.  the pink dot in the middle is the cabin and inbetween is all uphill.

 thats our campfire and marshmallow art


some signs along the way

speaking of moose; thats the local radio station

some beauty along the way



then we find the best sign of all.... moon shadows estate winery.
theres carol.... she is so friendly and she gave special k and i lots of samples.
"Moon Shadows Estate Winery, Ontario's first Maple Winery, specializing in wines made from Haliburton Maple Syrup and Ontario grown tree fruit and berries."

 im not sure how far they ship, but believe me, it is worth finding out if you love maple and you love wine!!!

 time got away from me or i would have been back for more.
 pretty sure they will ship to where i am :)

 all for now.  part 3 to follow shortly

  2. I was wondering where you went. Your camping trip looks very cool. That turtle crossing sign made me chuckle - you wouldn't want to be in a hurry. xx

  4. Hi Laura - thanks for commenting on my blog - hope you follow it! glad you got to Ireland too and enjoyed it. I like your blog and all those moose-inspired radio stations - another world from this neck of the woods! I haven't been to Canada - it's on my bucket list though. By the way - just looking at your Shelfari selection that appeared and saw Damien Lewis's Tears of the Desert there - I met him in Lismore in June as he spoke at our Literary Festival of Travel Writing! Small world indeed. I have the book but haven't read it yet.
    Thanks for visiting and I'll reply over on my blog - Catherine.

  9. Oh Laura,
    Your camping trip looked like great fun..... lots of wildlife, beautiful scenery and, the best of all.....a visit to the winery !!!! Fantastic.
    I have to say that, we have visited an awful lot of the States and it is a very beautiful country.
    .....and, we did a great deal of walking UP on our holiday in Italy, so I know what you mean.
    The wine sounds delicious......you can tell what part of your camping trip I would rnjoy most, can't you !! hehe XXXX

  11. Malvavisco, es una golosina que en españa se le concoce por "nubes". Muy curioso la forma en que se cocina. Lo probaré¡¡¡¡
