The highlight of being stranded on a remote bike path, waiting for rescue, is that it gives you an opportunity to explore. Me and the kids climbed a great big dune while we waited for Nate to return with the repair kit for the bike tire. Once we got to the top, a sweeping vista of beaches, dunes and a far-off glimpse of Sable Point Lighthouse was visible -- it was gorgeous!
We finished off the day by going for a swim in the local river. It was quite shallow at the point we were swimming at ... only just below knee-deep almost all the way across. Even Roxy joined in the fun and swam toward Nathan. She's truly an old water dog!
After the swim, it was time to pack up and go home, though we all wished we could stay a few days longer. But we had an amazing time! It just goes to show, that every once in awhile, it's great good fun to act on your whims and be spontaneous!
Nate works to fix his flat tire. What a guy!
