Oh, Jonas! I love your photos and captions!! What a wonderful place to camp. It's so pretty. And the river and your canoe. Anika is changing into a little girl from a toddler. So cute to see her diffeerent face. It looks like a great vacation to me. Thank you so much for going to the effort of sharing your vacation with us!
