Beach Season has begun

Today was a beautiful enough day to warrant a picnic lunch and beach visit. We got a group together at church and, after an unexpected rendezvous at PaknSave (quite the popular post-church hang-out), we met up at the Port Loop Circle picnic area. We've only been there once or twice before for BBQs, at the tail end of last summer, and it's actually a great spot - large, flat, fairly protected from easterly breezes, and grassy.

After lunch, and a bit of cricket, rugby, soccer, and cubb, we wandered over to the beach. We ourselves were a fairly large group and provided a good cheering section for some race which was happening in the opposite direction.

Found this poor fellow not looking very happy.
