Peter’s Wish was to visit Kings Beach
A reconnection to the land, ocean and beach. Peter’s Wish was to visit Kings Beach with his family.
A rainy day wouldn’t stop Peter from visiting this special place. Although he couldn’t leave the ambulance, Peter remained in high spirits as he overlooked the choppy water and took in the salty sea air with his family.
Peter’s son ventured out into the rain and collected various items from the beach for Peter to hold and smell. Whether it was feeling the bumps and crevices of a shell, running his hands through a bit of sand or even smelling some washed up seaweed, Peter was able to connect to Kings Beach through his senses and fondly reminisce. A truly magical experience.
And who couldn’t go past ice-cream to finish a wonderful Wish.
