Sunny visit to Cobourg
The other day we took a drive down to Cobourg which is in between Toronto and Belleville. The town is very pretty and has some nice shops. We wandered through King street where most of the quaint type shops are. We then wandered along to the lakefront and to the marina. There were lots of water birds here and lots of expensive looking boats.
As you can see the wether was beautiful, very hot with sun shining and not a cloud in the sky. Along side the marina a lots of new condos. Some are already built but others are still being built. They looked really nice (as condos go) and when I got home I looked up on MLS to see how much they were. They ranged from around $250k for a one bed apartment to half a million dollar for three beds and a harbour view.
After exploring the marina we then went to the beach area. Cobourg has a large beach with lots of amenities such as cafe, toilets, showers, children’s play area and Victoria park backs onto it. We will probably bring the girls here when they stay as they want a day on the beach.
We were going to take them to Sandbanks, but by going to Cobourg instead they get the all the other bits the town has to offer as well as the beach. Plus the cafe and toilets are right on the beach so the amenities are better.
We cannot believe that the girls arrive on Monday. It seems like forever ago that they originally booked their flights etc. With their new flights they arrive early on Monday morning , so an early drive to Toronto for us. Lets hope the traffic won’t be too bad.
