Kyle Cousteau pouts in frustration as his adventures are halted by the raging Nanaimo River...a frothing rapid threatens to turn this journey into a wet one.
Instead of fighting the frigid waters we dove right in. We swam here (see below) and jumped off the rocks and had all sorts of splashy fun. I almost drowned trying to get back to shore, apparently I'm a pretty weak swimmer. It was bloody cold so we warmed up with man's best friend. I hit the wine. I found this fun looking bottle at some liquor depot, I think I'll keep it and put some hippy-rocks or moon-stones or something in it, something spiritual and deep looking. Like, really bohemian and hip, ya know?
I ate far too much sugar and had a difficult time sleeping, a real pounder was ravaging my mind. We heard some critters outside and everyone was up at around 2am trying to figure out what it was, likely a mouse. I probably fell asleep around 6am as my headache dissipated and my thoughts of Mag gave birth to dreams. I was awoken by the rooster-howl that is Asher, the man is a fiery display in the morning mist. I'm surprised he ever drinks coffee, you'd think he had an IV pumping it into his veins throughout the night considering his energy in the morning. Anyhow we all took a nice stroll back down to the Nanaimo river.
I'm home now, on my 3rd coffee, with a promising remainder of day...I think pizza, chips and a few movies are in order. Even Captain Cousteau had to recharge after his adventures at sea...or, tame river as the case may be.
