TAKE A HIKE
Take a long walk in the woods. Trails are located behind the cottage (exit the cottage, turn right, go through the park with the red bench and down the hill, into the woods). Go right, go left, there are things to see either way.
HINT: to see the waterfall, go to the left. We hear the fireflies put on a spectacular show near the waterfall on summer nights.
GRAB A BOOK

Brew some hot tea and hide away until dinner with a great book.
Dinner can start with everyone reading a passage from something new they have read that day.
