Day 9: July 13, 2012

It's Friday the 13th!! But there aren't any black cats or mirrors to break up here at the island, so I think we'll be alright.

We slept in a bit, and had a sanitation day! Angleworm and our next lake, Benson Lake, aren't connected, so we had to sanitize all of our gear. While we were waiting for the water to heat up or letting things soak, we told ghost stories in honor of the spooky date.

Ate lunch after sanitizing, and tried desperately to stay in the shade as it got hotter and hotter. Charlotte and Sarah wanted to jump off of the dock into Lake Superior, but it was really crowded by the time we got over to the dock. Daisy Farms is a "hot spot" of sorts for people to visit while they're on the island. It's a really good starting point for some picturesque hikes! Although everything is picturesque up here. :)
This was our shady lunch spot.
We settled for dipping our feet in the water to cool off.
 
Also, this is a video of river otters that we saw while sampling!! They were adorable, and I couldn't resist putting the video up here. :)

Had taco night tonight!! It was wonderful. I thought it deserved to be mentioned because of this great picture of the gals with their tortillas. :)


All ready to sample Benson tomorrow!!
