Weekend Wrap-up: Christina Lake/Grand Forks Part 2

Berries of Some Sort

 The first day in Grand Forks was spent walking along part of the Trans Canada Trail, checking out the Kettle River and exploring the town.  I couldn't believe the amount of grasshoppers there were (especially on the trail) and didn't enjoy them hopping into me as they tried to leap out of the way.

Happy Days Donuts

I heard good things about the local 50's diner and since I'm a sucker for vintage inspired restaurants, Phil and I stopped in for lunch one day and enjoyed a couple of keen burgers and split a cherry coke (float).

Havin' Fun

 We took a quick detour on our way to the lake and headed up to Cascade Falls.  The hike was pretty easy (which was lucky 'cause we were both in flip flops) and the falls were gorgeous!

While on my mini vacation I took a fair number of photos (some were a little more blurry than I had intended) and will share the last of the photos tomorrow - you can see the first half here.
