I decided to take the older cousins out for an activity. They were always with the little ones, so this was just for them! We visited Arbre en Arbre at Ilv Melville in Shawinigan.
I got the whole deal for them. The tree climbing AND the extreme ziplines. Maelie suddenly discovered her love of zip-lining! Crazy girl!
In her younger years, she would have been afraid of this type of activity... but now, she is crazy about it! She LOVES the sensation of zipping through the air!
Once they got to the tree climbing part, they had to work a bit harder than the ziplines! They had to make their way through the different activities in the trees. It was an awesome time!
Maelie almost made it to the end. She was really thirsty by the end so she was too exhausted to finish the last part. Next time we go, we'll bring water along! What brave kids ! I must be a wimp because I would never be tempted to go high like that!
How nice of Lucas to offer Maelie a piggy back ride on the way out!!
On our last day, we went out for breakfast with "les matantes". Two of grand-maman's sisters came for breakfast with us. It's always so nice to see them!
Maelie my sweetheart!
Jo wanted to go to Lac de Piles after lunch for a swim. Sadly, it started to rain so only Maelie and Nathan made it in the water! She did have company at one point... a mama duck swam by, probably wondering why Maelie was out there in the rain! ;)
After our visit to the lake, we drove home. It's always sad to leave the cousins because we will more than likely not see them for a year. We miss them already! :) How I wish we lived closer so we could randomly visit on the weekends for adventures! I love these 3 kiddos!! and Maelie of course!
