How to Defeat a Demon King in Ten Easy Steps

Andrew Rowe Book cover for How to Defeat a Demon King in Ten Easy Steps

Another beautiful Saturday in Bermuda. With the restrictions lifting, and my youngest bugging me about it all week, we decided a trip to the beach was in order. This is no small feat with young kids. Finding bathing suits, towels, beach toys, sunscreen and the small cooler bag is one thing, but the real fun comes when you get home and don’t want to track a ton of fine sand into your house. Thankfully I took the time before getting back into the car to get most of it off.

On top of that, it was pretty busy at the beach. Of course, we went to Horseshoe so it was bound to be busy. We ended up parking away from the beach and hiking through the dunes to the beach. It was a mini-adventure before we even got to the beach which was fun for the kids. Then after an hour or more of playing in the surf, we headed back. In general, although there were a number of people at the beach, people seemed to be mindful of staying away from others a respectful distance.

Oh and I went for a COVID test this afternoon. I will say that nasal swab is not comfortable. Will report when I receive results.

Things I’m grateful for:

  • Nice weather
  • Adventures with my kids
  • People keeping their distance
