Again to the Sauble Beach, Ontario!

_

It was the second consecutive year that we headed for the Sauble Beach this year on September 2-5 for the sun, sand and swim. Our trip to the beach last year was so enjoyable that we repeated our short sojourn there.

This year we stayed at one of the Bel-Air cottages where we could cook our own meals. Last year we stayed in one of the Bel-Air motels where there are no cooking facilities available.

The following photos give you a glimpse of the sun, sand and swim that one can enjoy at this well-kept beach. The sunset scenes are always different and they linger on in your mind for days to come.

Look at the sky and see how its colour begins to change
