speaking of arcades

We did drive a few hours north to Collingwood to the Just Push Play arcade downtown. Collingwood is a former shipping and shipbuilding town on Lake Huron that's now known for its skiing on the nearby Blue Mountain resorts and summer fun at Wasaga Beach, as well as its yearly Elvis Festival. The arcade has vintage pinball, vintage arcade games, and a few of those multi-game machines, both with hundreds of games each. Soooo, I got to play lots of old favorites and experience weird obscure games. It's $10 for all you can play in an hour (or $15 all day) and well worth it, in my opinion, just to play Frenzy and Red Baron and Moon War and Moon Patrol and Pleiades and Mappy and Robotron and even 'Streaking' to your heart's content.

We also had lunch at the Olde Red Hen, got our feet wet in the lake, got bug bit wandering down dirt roads in the Blue Mountains, and drove through tons of farmland across the back roads of rural Ontario. And that was Saturday!
