Here is the plan:
Park one car at the ice cream place in Tobermory, drive in the other car to the Bruce Peninsula National Park and hike the Bruce Trail back to the ice cream place and reward yourself with ice cream after a gruesome 20k hike.
We had some takers: Dianne, Judy H., Anne and Mads.
Anne secured her family cottage in Oliphant for the weekend and invited us out to stay over and hike together. We got there Friday night and had delicious fish & chips on the way up in some place that I don't remember the name of, but I would find it again.
Saturday morning started out with a healthy breakfast of green smoothie, fruit and egg wrap and of course coffee. With all the driving up there and dropping off the car in Tobermory and driving down to the National Park, we didn't get on the trail before 11-ish. The weather was perfect, clear sky, sunshine, not crazy cold, dry, only a little bit windy by the lake and on the cliff.
Only because no jumping or pushing BFRs off any cliffs is one of the rules in the BFR code of conduct did we not jump off the cliff today.
The hike was beautiful. I want to say that this is the most stunning part of the Bruce Trail. We started at the Grotto/Horse Lake Trail head at km 147.7 (map book edition 26) and ended at the cairn in Tobermory at km 167.4. 
We didn't exactly rush ourselves on the hike but did a lot of sightseeing along the trail. We played with a corn snake, got sprayed by the waves, looked at leaves and rocks and roots and trees and lychen and moss and funghi and all sorts of interesting things along the way. There are some stunning views and amazing private beaches. Close to the end of the trail is the visitor center with the observation tower that of course we had to climb up. There were a few stiles that also wanted to be climbed and here is a picture to proof that we climbed over and did not just walk around it where there was no fence really. 
It was a beautiful day and I am now almost over the fact that there was no ice cream at the end of the day. By the time we crawled out of the trail it was dark and everything was closed. But that was fine. We had lots of delicious food back in the cottage (thanks Anne for the soup and veggie lasagne) and ended the day in the hot tub to ease our sore muscles. Pancakes and fruit for breakfast on Sunday. Dianne had to leave early-ish. Anne, Judy and I vegged a bit and went for a short walk to the dock in Oliphant where the water levels are at an incredible low. We had a fantastic weekend and it did not rain on us at all! Hope the new and old injuries heal fast.
Can't wait to get out again.
