It's Thursday, and that means I'm Thinking About the Weekend! There are lots of seasonal attractions reopening for the season over the Victoria Day long weekend, the only problem will be choosing where to go.
The Elmvale Jungle Zoo reopens on Sunday, May 17th. My family visits at least once very year, and it's always lots of fun to see such a variety of animals without having to trek for miles. The food offerings are minimal, though, so I suggest you bring a picnic.
We are also looking forward to visiting the Muskoka Wildlife Centre this year for the first time to see some of Canada's native animals, like raccoons, wolves and snakes.
The South Simcoe Railway starts again this Sunday, and will operate through the Thanksgiving weekend. The steam trains are currently under restoration, but there are trips available on a '40s-era electric train, and the scenery is beautiful.
Looking for something a bit more adventurous? Check out the various activities in the woodlands and wetlands of the Wye Marsh in Midland. Canoe ecotours are available beginning May 16th, with Saturday evening twilight tours and Sunday early morning tours throughout the summer.
Before you visit any of Ontario's attractions, don't forget to check out the Attractions Ontario website to see if there are discounts available! You can print off a coupon right now for use at the Elmvale Jungle Zoo, good through September 30th.
