Day 212 - Campsite Mirabel QC

Mirabel, QC view map

(943/365)
We arrived at the National Parc d'oka only to find it full (common theme with us) even though I checked beforehand and there were plenty of open sites. They helped us find another campground in Mirabel. We've camped a lot of campgrounds, I've been camping since I was about 3 (so almost 40 years) and this had to be the most un-tent-friendly campground I've ever seen. The Mirabel CG is a large field stuffed with seasonal campers (people who most likely are escaping the city and feel ok in closed places). Anyway all the facilities are on one side of a cesspool, er pond, the tent sites are on the other. You have to walk almost a 1/2 mile to the showers and real bathrooms (for say, brushing teeth). I think the tenting area was an afterthought. Anyway we made the best of it. The picnic table was a conversation item, it was all of three feet wide, very cute.
