Vacations, Vacations, Vacations

Well since I'm a little kid, vacations were synonimus of Beach - therefore waves, surf and sun. Well after leaving Brazil, most of the time Vacations were used to visit new places, meet new folks and so on.
I was not prepared for what I've got on my last vacations, not that I haven't enjoyed, but mostly because some of the things I was used to were dearly missing. Just got back of 10 days in one of the most beautifull places in Quebec (maybe in the world) in total immersion in the Nature. Seen Deers, Foxes, Racooons, Loonies and almost a black bear. You might say : "hey what's the matter??"...
During the whole time we were in the Mont Tremblant National Park, the weather was bad, we had 3 to 4 days of sun and the rest was rain... I felt like in England !!!
I do Camp with a nice Eureka Tent (I extremelly reccomend this maker) and it's almost a nuclear shelter, but it was humid and cold ... The kids got rowdy and of course it was not as fun as I've expected.
So like you can probably understand, even though the place was great, we could not do most of the hikes or biking we're expecting... Also we've got showered a couple of times during our quick hikes. Anyway the worst it was not having this foul weather during my vacations, but after we've decided to leave a day early, packing the things etc.. guess what?? The Sun decided to show up, it was warm and nice during the trip back home....

Now my question is : Am I right to be PO of my vacations???
