Camping Harrison
We decided since the weather was so nice that we go camping for one night at Harrison Hot Springs. We left right after work and got stuck in our wonderful Port Mann bridge traffic for half and hour and then crawled for another half hour trying to get out of the city. So what should have been a 70 minute drive took 130 minutes. Very painful. We camped right by the center of Harrison about 100 yards from the beach. We were the only tenters but the weather was fine and not too cold at night. I setup everything and made dinner and then Linda and the kids crashed early just after 9PM. I stayed up and opened up a 6 Pack of MGD just to watch it die (I love that line J) We weren’t allowed a fire so it was pretty quiet and at 11:30 I called it a night.
We had a good breakfast at the site and then packed up and hung out at the beach for 3-4 hours. We saw the sand castle contest but didn’t pay the $19 they wanted for our family so we just looked through the fence. We made our own sand art – a turtle and lizard. We checked out the Harrison Hot Springs Hotel and we really want to stay there next time. It’s a full resort with pools and spas. Very nice. Too bad it’s so expensive. We checked out Tug Boat Junction and played some mini putt afterwards. It was a short and sweet trip.
