Day 10, 11, 12 - Mira River Provincial Park

We didn't spend that much time in the park because during the day and as long as it was warm, it was filled with mosquitoes and black flies.

The first night we went to shower in the new bathrooms, the one they were updating last year.  We did like the idea of the unisex bathroom. Basically a large room with a large shower at one end, a toilet, a baby changing table and a sink.  This way if you are travelling with 2-3 small children, you, your significant other and all the kids can use this one bathroom to cover all your needs. 

What we didn't like was the fact the shower was way too hot and with no way to adjust it... well it was way too hot. You don't want to stay under it and rinse.   I'm not against gadgets but this idea of the human will not adjust,  will mean people get water that's too cold or too warm...  not everyone likes their water at the same temperature.

The 2nd night, that bathroom complex was closed for repairs. Hopefully they adjusted the water from scalding to acceptable.   The bathroom available was in an area that is  under renovations, to make it available to camper-trailers but they had added a path to make it findable. It was closer to our campsites, and the showers, while not new, were a good temperature and acceptable.

It was a quiet campsite, and I had wifi at the bathrooms. At our campsite the wifi was come and go.
