This time we went to Brenton Point early in the day. The sun shone brightly and sparkled on the water. It was beautiful.
It was also at a lower tide, so it provided a different view than my last visit.
In the afternoon, we wandered around the shops, and waited a half hour to get a seat for dinner even though it was only 4:00 in the afternoon. The long holiday weekend, together with the beautiful weather, apparently brought people out in droves.
It was a good day. I think we needed that time together, too. It seems that sometimes we all get too caught up in our day to day lives. We need to slow down and focus on each other for a change.
I've learned that time with your loved ones is a gift. That's why it's called "the present."
