Sharbot Lake, Ontario
Victoria Day is a Canadian holiday that happens on the last Monday before May 25th. It celebrates Queen Victoria’s birthday, but Canadian’s don’t care about Queen Victoria. Instead of celebrating an old smelly lady’s birthday, we use the holiday as a chance to enjoy the long-awaited warm weather and to drink beer in great quantities. This is why Victoria Day is commonly called May Two-Four weekend (as in 24 case of beer) and why it’s often spent camping. This shot was taken on Black Lake at the Sharbot Lake Provincial Park. The water is clear but not quite warm enough for a swim.
