~ 130 ~ Walk With Me at the Beach in Seabright, Nova Scotia, Canada

Listen to the Waves Lap as the Tide Comes In

(Video 0:53)

We were introduced to this beautiful secluded beach yesterday by our friend Carol (who is in the process of having her account approved woohoo!). The kids had an absolute blast playing there because the water is so shallow. No drop offs at all and very minimal seaweed (just enough to have a good ol' fashioned seaweed fight with).

A natural kiddy pool (sans the oh henry bars). I hope...

It was a real slice of heaven...couldn't ask for better weather. These are the moments I feel so grateful to have given up the city life, that we can be surrounded by natural beauty every which way we look, and can be alone in nature just from driving a few minutes from our home.

Treasures

Stryder's Cache

The boys found a lot of really cool glass, shells, rocks and feathers. A lot of which we brought home. Carol bought some sea glass off of @kiedisbowes, our little business prodigy 😉 As soon as she said she would pay he was off looking for more. Stryder tried to sell her a rock hahaha he was not down for searching for the glass.

Picnic on Driftwood

And that's it folks! I am kicking myself for not taking more photos, however, happy that I spent so much of the day just basking in the moment. I hope you are making the most of your summer too, if you live in a cool climate like us, we need to absorb every sweet second of this weather.

I hope you enjoyed this #WalkWithMe. Here are some recent walks with our STEEM Fam who got out there in the world, and took us with them.
See life through their eyes...

Fire Walk With Me

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

We're gonna walk on fire :) !! Show me how :D !!

edicted (72) · 6 years ago

The trick is to wet your feet to take advantage of the Leidenfrost effect. If it works on molten lead I'm sure hot coals don't stand a chance.

andyjem (55) · 6 years ago

Wow Lyndsay. I am so glad to see the back of all that ice and snow. It looks like a totally different world. Its so great when you discover a secret little place away from the crowds. Looks like a great place for a sundown BBQ and if the water is warm enough a sneeky little dip. Thanks for the walk. 😎😎❤❤

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Ooh would be awesome to bring a grill down there, good idea!

andyjem (55) · 6 years ago

I have my moments lol 💚

really a slice of heaven!
great weather and perfect rest you've!
You're right during summer we need to absorb sun warmth and positive energy from nature to keep us strong during the whole year
Boys seem to have great time!

have you caught nature energy?)

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Yes for sure I am taking in all of the energy I can from beautiful Mother Nature, and I'm so glad that time seems to be going by slowly this summer, it's only July 9th!! Woohhoooo still months more to go!

Wow! What a beautiful day at the beach! our beach is a lot calmer than ours. Ours is a surfer's beach so we always have lots of high waves. And our tide comes in quickly...but it looks an awesome day for the family.

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Yeah we don't have much for wild waves in Nova Scotia, well, in Canada in general, can get some 5 footers in Lawrencetown here, but in the bay we're pretty chill.

The kids would just love big waves and watching the real surfers...

$0.00

cecicastor (60) · 6 years ago (edited)

Watching yes. Participating, that's another story. There is a lot of coral about 00 meters out and there have been a lot of broken boards and limbs in the time we have lived here.

Hi, thanks for another great walkwithme post...
does this heaven have biking trails? can someone get to the beach by bicycle?
I love canada's nature..

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

You definitely could take a bike to this beach, and Nova Scotia has thousands of wonderful bike trails... <3

foodisfree (53) · 6 years ago

I love how Walk With Me has totally inspired others to get out into nature. Are you familiar with the Japanese concept, Shinrin-yoku or forest bathing? I just love that.

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

I've never heard of that term before, but it sounds just right! Forest Bathing....yup...I believe I've done this...just never knew what it was called :)

barracudadiaries (55) · 6 years ago

As always, I love the virtual Nova Scotia trips.

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

I'm so glad that you came to visit again @barracudadiaries xo

trudeehunter (71) · 6 years ago

What an idyllic spot to relax with friends and family @lyndsaybowes There is nothing more soothing than the sound of waves gently washing upon the shore. I hope you will be able to enjoy many more days like this during summer.

There is no comparison to this little slice of heaven compared to the noise and pollution of city life.

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Thanks so much for visiting us again Trudee! I could never go back to the concrete jungle <3

trudeehunter (71) · 6 years ago

My pleasure @lyndsaybowes. I’m sure I’d feel the same if I were you. 😊

marionbowes (57) · 6 years ago

That looks like a beautiful place to enjoy the sea. Is it far from where you live?

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Just a few minute drive and then about a 5 minute walk through the woods <3 <3 <3

fishyculture (60) · 6 years ago

Thank you, for being such a lovely soul and for helping out my friends. HUGS!

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

I hope that they get everything that they need @fishyculture!

madushanka (74) · 6 years ago

Hi @lyndsaybowes, There are so difference beaches than my country. Also various see weeds indeed. Looking so cool environment with some large trees. Sea waves so calm fallen. Both of kids have fun there.

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Yes I bet our sea weed is very different than yours!

madamuhammad (52) · 6 years ago

delishtreats (70) · 6 years ago

What a lovely day you had! I wish there would be a beach near my place. It looks like your boys had lots of fun!

Picnic on the beach is the best!! I love sandwiches :)

I see that you are really making the best of summer. Have fun and keep sharing your pictures and stories with us :)

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Thanks so much for visiting us @delishtreats, what sort of landscape do you have? Where do you go to get into nature there?

delishtreats (70) · 6 years ago

Thank you for coming back to me! :) We have many lakes and mountains just an hour drive away. We usually go to the Alps when we want to go hiking, otherwise we go to the forest nearby for a picnic or just for a walk. It is beautiful here but I'm missing the sea a bit. Lucky me, we'll be going to Mallorca in two weeks so I'll get my vitamin 'sea' for this year :)

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Oooh beautiful, I'm so happy you'll be getting your vitamin SEA soon! WOOHOO!!

gardeningchef (59) · 6 years ago

Thank you for taking us along with you on your beach day :D what a beautiful contrast to the European sea scapes I am accustomed to.

I know the feeling of 'not taking enough photos' all too well, but sometimes it is better to make memories with loved ones and worry about photos another time :)

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Ooh nice, I'd love to see your beach photos...

$0.00

gardeningchef (59) · 6 years ago

Hopefully I will take some soon. I don't tend to take my camera out to the beach as I must go for a swim when there and there is nowhere to store my camera safely!

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Ooh that sucks :(

phoenixwren (65) · 6 years ago

I love that Earthing photo. 😄 Such a beautiful place!

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

I definitely miss the days of not being afraid of all the beach bugs and just getting buried in sand!

phoenixwren (65) · 6 years ago

Don't tell me, I don't want to develop a new bug phobia. 😂

manorvillemike (65) · 6 years ago

That was a fine beach to relax on and play if a youngster. Certainly is a nice place to live.

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Thanks Mike, and I think I saw an osprey! Couldn't get a good photo of it though...have to live vicariously through you on that one!

Sea glass can be so beautiful and I am glad he has a little side hustle going on...lol.

When you said, "a good old seaweed fight", all I could think of was that old Red Stripe commercial that mentioned an "old Jamaican stick fight.....and I would win" lol I tried to find a video to link but was unsuccessful.

lyndsaybowes (71) · 6 years ago

Aw haha I wish I knew the reference and could laugh with you! I'm glad you got a chuckle though :) Literally the boys rip out seaweed and throw it in each other's faces hahaha :) Fearless!

gabrielatravels (67) · 6 years ago

Many thanks for nominating my post! :D

davidfar (70) · 6 years ago

That's a perfect place Lyndsay :D I am a fan of these natural places, clear water, trees and all the beauties of nature getting together and will make me feel peace :D
