Today I went on a hike with Dad.We drove to the beginning of the hike in Ladysmith. We started walking down the hydro lines because that was where the trail started. I wasn't sure it was it but Dad said we should keep going and see. It worked out. We soon saw a rock staircase and then started hiking up.
And up. And up. And up up up up up up up. There were many trees and small mushrooms.
I saw lots of pretty views. We got to one point where we saw Ladysmith, Thetis Island, North Galiano, and we think the mainland. It was cool. We hoped to see a whale but we didn't.
Then we continued our journey up. We got to Heart Lake and the lake was frozen (mostly). We only heard a squirrel building his home and nothing else. We found a perfect little birdnest on the ground so Dad lifted it up and put it back into a tree. The silence was so cool too. I even struck a meditation pose.
We stayed there for 15 minutes then went back down. I really enjoyed my hike and I can't wait to take mom and Callym with me next time. Good bye. The end. Oz.
