I take an final walk to Turtle Back Outlook after breakfast. The heat is barely tolerable, even this early in the morning. As we get in the smaller boat that will take us to the ferry, I silently kick myself for not taking a swim before leaving. But the water is shallow and everyone was hanging around chatting.
But oh my luck! We leave the island early, get to where we're to meet the ferry and the boys from the island jump in the water. I strip off my shirt and jump in, bra and shorts. It is amazing. The water is azure and everyone is giggling. By far the best swim yet. When it's time to get in, one of the guys hauls in each of the girls, backwards. It looks terribly uncomfortable, so I get myself in. The reaction: "Ah, Canada -- you're strong."
That's right.
