Today on my day off I went on an adventure of sorts. I woke up relatively early for it being my day off (10AM). The Hotel/Pub I work at has two kayaks that we are able to use so I grabbed one of them and headed over to Lancelin island. If you look at the pictures in previous posts, it is the largish island just out to sea.
It took me about 30 minutes to get to the island, at one point a sea lion popped it’s head out of the water to watch me paddle up onto the shore and continued to dive surface and watch on and off for the next 40 min. After pulling up onto the island I pretty much collapsed onto my quickly spread out towel to revel in the quite calm of an “abandoned” island. I grabbed my book and donned my birthday suit for some peace and relaxation. after about 3 hrs and one slightly burnt ass, I clothed up and wandered the island. I strolled the beach picking up seashells that might make their way back to one or more of you who are reading this.
There was a wooden walk way that went up and over the island to the other side and to a slightly higher viewing platform. here are some photos:
And so after all my photo fun and laughing at the snoring sea lion it was time to head back in to reality again.
Until next time,

Addendum: One burnt ass, there is no doubt about it.
