Everyone needs to take that one day off and enjoy the sunshine. That was what I did last Thursday. And a good tan wasn't the only thing I got out of the day.
My friend and I decided that we should do the one thing we always talk about doing, but never really get around to doing. And that was boating. All fears aside, we rented a 15' boat from Horshoe Bay for an hour and just drove around the water. What an amazing feeling. Gripping the side of the boat, riding the waves, discovering new islands, and trying not to run into ferries was exhilarating, especially for a first time boater as myself.
After our boating adventure we went to Wytecliff Park, a little rocky beach secluded from civilization. What a hidden treasure! Sure, there was no white sand, or lemonade stand. But there was a pleasant calmness and serenity. To our right there were families enjoying the cold water on a hot day, and to our left there were two men playing tranquil melodies on the guitar. It was the perfect atmosphere to an amazing day.
It was my goal this summer to discover beautiful British Columbia. I think I am one step closer when I found my hidden treasure.
