Bruneau Trip Part Four: The Dune

Sunday morning started with a nice breakfast. A little stretch.

For both boys...

Then a trip to the dunes. Lucas stayed back at the cabin with a sleepy Henry. I took Owen and went to the "smaller" of the two dunes. As soon as we unloaded the car, the two older kids took off running.

Nathanael and Seth soon followed.

Owen, Beatrix, Suzi and myself stayed back for a bit to play in the sand. (High on the top of the dune are some Ryersons) Funny moment of the day: Beatrix filled her shoe with sand, then "drank" from the shoe. (she must have a thing for sand).

I think Owen could just play in the sand for a long time. Fill the bucket, dump the bucket, fill the bucket, dump the bucket.

After a while, The four of us started up the dune too. Luckily, Nathanael ran down to grab Beatrix, and then again for Owen. It's pretty steep at the end. But worth the view.

Self-Portrait.

I carried/slid Owen most of the way down, then let him run the final stretch.

Back again at the bottom to play in the sand. Now, joined by Seth.

Owen doesn't quite have the stamina as the older kids, so he tired out after an hour. So, we went back to camp as Suzi set off again with the younger two to join up with the rest of her family.
