Day #8 - The Ocean
March 14, 2024•173 words
Nature. There is nothing like it.
This afternoon we took a short drive to the back beach at Streaky Bay. Initially it almost wasn't going to happen - kids taking forever to get ready, stuffing around, felt like we were going around in circles just trying to get into the car.
But as soon as we got there - the energy was phenomenal. Bay beaches are great, but there is nothing like the ocean - the wildness, the ruggedness, the waves crashing down reminding you of their relentless power and sound. The girls just ran wild, and we were able to take the deepest of breaths and remind ourselves that we are so much happier near the water - it's our happy place, our calm, our zen.
We have never regretted the effort of getting down to the beach - even if the struggle of getting the girls ready and sorted seems to take an eternity, as soon as we hit that sand, it all just fades away.
See you tomorrow.
