Pleasant Surprises Everyday
Coming to Harrison was not in my mind when I left home yesterday. But the "Harrison Hot Springs" signposts along the highway looked so inviting. I thought it might not be a bad idea to see if I would feel comfortable taking an unplanned side trip. I stayed here at Harrison's campground last night and came out to explore the city this morning.
Downtown's indoor public pool did not look that interesting to me. I knew there would be other hot springs in the nature setting later on the trip. I passed this one by. While strolling along the beautiful Harrison sand beach, I ran into to a fenced beach showroom that housed the participating artworks of the recent sand sculpture tournament. I was amazed by the creativity and elegance of these sculptures. What a pleasant surprise!! Harrison calls itself "the sand sculpture capital of the world". It indeed lives up to this reputation.
I had the feeling this would be a very interesting trip full of surprises.
Harrison is a hot spring resort town accessible via Canada's Highway 7 from Highway 1. It is a small town I am glad I take the side trip to visit.
The town calls itself "the sand sculpture capital of the world". Harrison sponsors World Championships of Sand Sculpture and other tournaments every summer.
