The River

Oh.. the Nanaimo River. I spent a day there today, and it was amazing... like, amazing. The water was clear and beautiful, it was cold and really deep. You could see the bottom as if it were 2 feet away, but if you tried to swim to it your ears pop. You can jump from high cliffs and search for gorgeous stones at the bottom. I hopped along the big white stones in the shallow water, and although I nearly broke my ankle a few times, I got better and better the further we got. I swam down rapids (hilariously I might add) and made eye contact with a crayfish (literally, we met eyes- and he was way cooler about the whole thing than I was).

Rivers Are Awesome.
