All over Ontario, there are rock formations called which the natives used to form to show others which direction where to go. Here, on the beach, someone had made a rock formation that looks like a man and woman sitting at a table!

We don't use shampoo in this house
These were the words of my current host family. As the host auntie was showing me the shower and I was getting the girls ready for thier showers, I asked if there was some shampoo that the girls could use. She looked at me and said, well we don't really use that stuff here, but maybe I can find some in the back of my closet. As she dug around for shampoo, my question to myself was, well then what the heck do you use to wash your hair? Surely, there must be some herb or something to replace it..but yuck! Then, as the girls were brushing thier teeth, the host families kids came in and started brushing thiers as well. As the kids began spitting in the bathtub, the host auntie explained, oh we just let them spit in the bathtub becuase they can't reach the sink..." Ewwww.... And then, poor Jenny, the host auntie asked her if she wouldn't mind babysitting for her kids while her and her husband went out to lunch. Today's Jenny's day off. The things people will ask of us... i couldn't believe it! :)
