Nelson 2009 – Day 3

Today was a wonderful restful day. We got up at 1030am! I finally felt well-slept and relaxed. It was another great sunny day here.

We had some lunch, as it was too late to have breakfast, and then enjoyed a wonderful walk through town. Nelson has a great collection of shops full of beautiful art, hand-made crafts, and clothing. We spent hours browsing through shops and enjoying the atmosphere. In the middle of our shopping we stopped in a bead store for an hour and made ourselves some bracelets. Nicole’s is very beautiful.

We stopped for a drink and a snack, relaxed in the hammock outside, and then went our for a nice dinner. After dinner we went for a nice walk along the lake.

Best of all, I spent the entire day BAREFOOT! It was such a great feeling to be able to shop barefoot, eat barefoot, and travel everywhere without anyone being concerned about my bare feet. My feet feel great and I feel very free here. It isn’t uncommon for people to walk around town barefoot in Nelson.

Nelson is such a free, relaxed place.
