We went camping at Rondeau Provincial Park south of Ridgetown on Lake Erie. I have been to over 10 Provincial Parks over the years and several conservation authorities and I have to say this is the nicest one I have been to.Rondeau Point has Lake Erie on one side on Rondeau bay on the other

The first day was unpacking and down to the beach. The water was warm. The next day was rainy so we decided to find a local winery and did. The winery was Smith & Wilson. We tried a few and wow the had some great wines. We wandered around as the rain had stopped. Before we went there we went in to Blenheim to pick up a few things we forgot. Isn't one of Murphy's Laws. When you go camping you always forget to pack something you need even though you have a pre-made camping bin or two.
The Smith & Wilson Winery, was an excellent little discovery the wines were amazing that we tasted we had to buy a few. If you like wine I suggest you make a trek to Blenheim to discover this little winery.
The wonderful view of the winery looking out over Lake Erie
We even had a little helper each day he helped with the dishes as it went on he got better
There was a day at the Beach enjoying the sun Mattis made a new friend her name was Paisley they got along great and had fun together.
Yes he had to hold her hand when we walked to the beach the next day. There campsite was next to ours.
Mattis and I went on a hike on the Marsh Trail he had a blast I had to carry him back his little legs did about 2 km out of the 3 km hike. I had to carry him back the rest of the way he fell asleep in the car before we left the parking lot. I then went on another trail on Wednesday afternoon called the Tulip Bush trail.

Mattis did some Kayaking he loves Kayaking here he is pretending to Kayak he did ride along with Mel in the Kayak.
It was a fun adventure that had to come to an end but we found a new place to go for family adventures and camping.
