Bear Lake Reunion - Ideal Beach

North Beach was wonderful, but it wasn't necessarily close nor inexpensive, so we gave Ideal Beach a try, which was quite close with the cost included in our house rental. Although it was a long hike from the parking lot to the water, and the day was quite windy (not the beach's fault!), we still had a great time.

Proof that I did more than sit on the beach!

Wayne and I got our turn on Big Mabel. It was a lot of fun!

Clark didn't think it was so much fun.

Our rides were quite enjoyable but not terribly exciting; Wayne and Weston went again and were quite thrilled with getting thrown off at the end.

Ideal Beach has other activities as well, which some of the kids decided to enjoy - miniature golf, giant chess, playgrounds, tennis courts and pools.
