I first heard about her from a few friends. " She is so beautiful. You should go and see her" said they.
Since then, I had been dreaming to see her someday
Finally, in that August of that year, I came in front of her. I was stuned for a few minutes . The word "Beautiful" is too plain to descripte her. She is romantic! She is breathtaking! She is gorgeous! I couldn't help falling in love with her.
I came back to see her again in the August of next year.
I came back again and again in the August of the year after year.
Whenever I think about her,she brings me sunshine, she puts smile on my face, she fill my soul with peace.
OK. No more secret. She is the Grotto in the Bruce Peninsula National Park of Canada, located near Tobermory, Ontario.
The Grotto is a scenic cave containing a pool of cristal clear turquoise water, with fascinating rocks and intricate cave structures. It opens right onto the picturesque Georgian Bay.
You can swim and snorkel in the water or just dip your feet in it. If you are fearless enough, you can do cliff diving.
I am an old lady. What I like doing is to scramble up and down the rocks very carefully. Sometimes, I just find myself a delightful spot to sit on, either in the sunshine or under the shade of trees, enjoying the marvelous view, breathing in great gulps of the fresh air and listening to the orchestra sounds played by wind, rocks, water and trees.
It is soothing to my soul.
The Grotto is a very popular place to visit in July and August. You have to book a 4 hour reservation timeslot online in advance in order to secure a parking space and the parking lot fills out very quickly.
If you don't want to be retrained by the 4 hour limit or if you want to visit Grotto anytime you want, there is another option. That is to book a campsite at the Cyprus Lake Campground nearby.
There is a nice hiking trail from the campgound to the Grotto. It is about 45 minutes each way; along the way, you'll see amazing vistas, ancient cedar trees with root spiraling on the groud, moss-covered rocks, a multitude of orchids and ferns, birds, and so much more!
But, as you can imagine, the campground is very popular too, it get booked out very quickly in summer season. Plan ahead to avoid disappointment!
Some people say:
The world is big you should go further to explore there are more wonders down the roads.
I say:
The life is short, I've found the one which is close to my soul I just want to enjoy it to the fullest.
Oh, the Grotto,
I will love you forever, until the water go dry the rocks melt down the Sun ceastes to rise
Oh, the Grotto,
I will come to see you again and again as long as my heart beats my legs work I still have breath
A good read. I bet there's more than meets the eye...

I know it's easier to schedule a trip in summer. If possible, though, better get there during the shoulder months of spring or fall. The absence of summer crowds would be a huge plus. I am just saying. Different strokes for different folks.
Looking forward to "another story." A sequel, maybe?

May not be too hard to find a crystal clear small lake, but Lake Huran is such hugh water body.

这可能是garter snake, 比较大了,有人当宠物养
水蛇,这种蛇据说挺好奇,如果人在水里游泳,常会把它引来看究竟,无毒但据说被咬后会有灼伤感

白云,你终于发帖啦!
你是言必行,行必果的人,太赞啦!!!
你这是写诗了?
等着你的奖品了。照片上正是我家公主。
It is very crowded in summer. That is why we don't go in weekend, especially holiday weekend. Weekday is better.
And we walk to the Grotto early in the morning or later afternoon when it is less crowded there.
I am waiting for my duagher to go to unversity, then I can travel any time during the year.
You know what I try to expression.
但是我很词穷,不知道如何表达。how will You phase this to make it nicer?
作文是我的短板,不像别人出口成章,下笔有神。所以很慢,象便秘那样。
我是没毅力的人,有个榜样在前面带着会好一些。
要不是你,我的新年决心早就泡汤了。目前已经坚持三个月了。
一起加油。
谢谢你。
