What a Beautiful Day

Fossil Beach at low tide (remember those rocks on
the wall?)

            A beautiful start to the day.  Weather is perfect.  Although the temperature changes a lot here depending on where you are.  At camp it is 80, down at the ocean, 70.  We decided to go back to Cape Enrage to see the low tide.  Wow!  You can walk out for probably ½ km.  Fossil beach (where yesterday we could barely move, we now had a football field) was amazing.  There is actually a hiking trail you can take when it is low tide.  We watched some people rock climbing and Hannah was quite interested.  However, that was the only session offered that day.

            After lunch we went on a hike called Matthew’s Head, which the kids found quite hilarious.  It was a strenuous hike for them.  A lot of uphill and 4.4 km long.  We got great views of the bay.  After the hike we were all tired, especially Emily.  We came back to the camp and just let the kids play.  They went to the playground and biked around.  Ryan got bit by something and his ear swelled up huge.  It was very funny.  His nickname was Dumbo.  No pictures however, he wouldn’t let us.  Actually he wouldn’t even leave the trailer after that.  It was pretty big.
