adventures on sidney spit

well summer is comming to an end and things are starting to slow down. which is sad for me because it means going back to school and in some ways having to grow up and act mature. but before all that happens me and my two friends decided to go have a fun time on sidney spit. just the 3 of us teenage girls. without any parent supervision. OH THE CAOS. ha ha just joking. it was a fun time. we did all the usual stuff at sidney spit (if you have been there) go swimming , hang out on the beach, tanning if your into that. but we also whent and checked out the bomb shelter on sidney spit. ok some times i am sooooo deprived i did not even know that sidney spit had a bomb shelter till this summer and i have been living in sidney for like my whole life. and been to sidney spit alot so that is just kind of sad.

natasha, fiona and I also decised to go and explore. we sort of when off of the main path and climed down the side of a clif to the beach. which was fun untill we could not get back up. somthing about me and climbing along clifs.we just do not go together. so we walked along the beach untill i saw this other sort of sandy clif that i thought i would try and climb up to see if it would be easier then the one that we came down. (keep in mind that if we just continued to walk around then i am sure that there would have been no need to climb up any clifs). natasha and fiona decided to send me as the scout. so i climbed up the hill along the way stiking my hand in prickel bushed and getting a pound full of sand in both my shoes. finaly all three of us got up. but we realized that the main path was no wear to be seen. so affter wondering around for about an hour we found it and started to walk back to our camp.

i think that one of the best things about going camping sometimes is not the swimming or the adventures i think sometimes the best part is the talks that you end up having. fiona, natasha and i talked alot. we ended up finding outselfs talking about life, our family. and some of the most random silly things that you can think off. there is this random dock on sidney spit that we went on and we just layed there looked up at the starts and talked non stop. it was great.


lots of other wacky stuff ended up happening on that island. i have some battle wounds from swimming into rocks. which is not a very smart thing to do i might add. swimming into rocks is painful. i am going to have to upload some pictures to put on once fiona gets them developed. because there are something that happen when you are camping that you cannot talk about you can only show...
it was fun.

Agreed. Camping rocks socks. And I'd rather never do anything exciting in life but be able to talk to anybody for hours. Somehow getting to know someone seems more valuable than jumping off cliffs or out of planes or into really cold water. And the best thing is that you get more than just a better knowledge of someone else.
