We stopped on a remote beach for lunch. Beautiful. This was a particular treat because the Nick (the guide) was going to prepare a beach stew for us. The stew would be prepared from foodstuffs available on the beach. We had already grabbed some kelp from the our morning paddle. Once ashore, Nick set out to gather wild herbs and plants from the bush, while the rest of us gathered mussels from the exposed tide walls. Once prepared, I found this to be a delightful treat. Tasty and warm, just what the doc ordered.
