Sun, sand and sunsets
It was a cool, windy November day when Elsa and her family pulled into her cousins' driveway in Campbell River. There was fog along the coast and heavy dark clouds overhead. It looked like it might start snowing at any moment. They all got out of the vehicle and went in to visit him. Kayley's house was warm and inviting, with the smell of freshly baked cookies and muffins wafting from the kitchen. Soon all of her parents arrived in the living room, drinking coffee and sampling freshly baked treats. Elsa, Kayley, Hannah and Kamma retreated to the playroom where they were greeted by a mountain of toys, games and entertainment treasures. Kayley's mom brought a big plate of cookies and hot chocolate to warm them up.
He suggested that the four of them go to the beach and have a little picnic. They could pack a small lunch, hot drinks and build a small tent between the logs to keep warm. They all agreed that it would be more fun than staying locked in their playroom, listening to their parents talk to each other. Both moms said, “It's fine, as long as everyone dresses warm and stays together. And above all, be careful when crossing the highway to reach the beach. Make sure you use the pedestrian traffic lights.
The four girls screamed with excitement as they donned warm clothes and backpacks filled with food and drinks. They walked out the door and headed to the beach, which was only two blocks away. As they walked along the sidewalk, they could hear the waves crashing on the shore and the screeching of seagulls. The wind blew sand and small pieces of paper along the road. After crossing the street safely, they headed towards the ocean and heard the water. It was very cold! The wind kept blowing and carrying sand, making it very uncomfortable. The girls were about to go home when suddenly the wind stopped and it got a little warmer.
A white, foggy image approached the surprised girls and said, “Hi Hannah. It's nice to see you again!" Hannah looked up and said, “Winnie! How are you? I haven't seen you since the night we saved that big Chinese plane.. She then told the other wind companions to take a break and head to another area of the beach until Hannah and her cousins left so they could enjoy a nice picnic. “Thank you,” Hannah said. "It's much better now, there's even a bit of blue sky, but it's still cold." The girls had already built a small shelter and were all huddled together. They looked out at the ocean and watched the birds fly around and occasionally dive into the water to bring back a small fresh lunchKamma then said,
“Hey, that's great! Too bad it wasn't even a little warmer than to be able to go for a walk on the beach." At that moment Elsa said, “Hey, look at that big flock of crows in the sky. They head towards Quadra Island. They probably have nests there. Before Elsa could say another word, the lead crow broke away from the flock and headed straight for where the girls were sitting. Elsa got a little scared and snuggled into Kayley. As the bird approached, she screamed, "Kayley! Kayley, how are you? IKayley immediately reached out and the large raven landed on her hand.
he salido Kayley. “Oh, I remember you, Hannah. You were still a child the last time I saw you,” Crowley said, then continued, “Nice to meet you, girls. What are you doing here on a cool November afternoon? “Be too cold,” Kayley said . "What! Is Winnie here? I haven't seen her since we met on a beach near Sayward and had to pull out a gun.
