Exploration - The great outdoor challenge

Day 8

Today was in the 50's so the water was "freezing" in the stream according to J. But W was esp. brave and was the first one to go into the stream and explored different entry points.
This will probably be my last post for a while since we are leaving for China so ready for some picture overload.

This is the beginning...
Getting braver... intently watching
the duck who was also in the streamCrossing... there were lots of mosquitoes but no stopping W
Made it!
I'm going to the other side...
After getting his sleeve wet and one slip, W tries to cross in different parts of the stream
coming back

Did it! This is so fun.Leading the way...

W stayed quite a bit longer than J and really explored.

J conquers her fears and finally goes to the big rock via the little rocks. That was her goal. Then she was off to the park to play.
Running/rolling on the hills up and down prior to all this was a great work out! W says his lungs was "bursting"!

Hopefully, I'll be able to upload some pic while in China. If not, I'll be back later to continue The Great Outdoor Challenge.
