My favorite beach is the one I grew up on in Cumberland, PEI. The sandbars stretch for miles and the water is some of the warmest north of Florida. When I was young it seemed like I lived on that beach! I remember eating my lunch sandwich in the water because I just couldn’t bear to get out of it for very long. When my children were small, we spent all the time we could here swimming, playing maze on the sandbars, beach combing, building sandcastles. And we were excited to introduce yet another generation to this magical place with my niece's 2 children during our Christmas in June celebration.
This weekend I joined my husband in Tracadie-Sheila in the northern part of NB and we walked the almost deserted Val-Comeau beach. Such a beautiful stretch of sand that reaches from one village to the next!
The sound of waves crashing on the shore, the smell of the salt air, the feel of sand, the sometimes gentle, sometimes wild winds....ah, bliss......
Bliss indeed! I feel cooler just by walking through your photos. Beautiful!
