3.5 miles stroll along the South Shore Trail from Weston Beach to the Bird Island trail, which loops out onto a peninsula between China and Gibson coves on its way to Pelican Point. Halfway around the loop is Pelican Point, where there was a large colony of pelicans on Bird Island. TAfter finishing the Bird Island Loop, I headed back north on the South Shore trail, going right past Weston Beach and continued north to the Sea Lion Loop before heading back to Weston Beach to join Herb for sunset.
