After a lovely walk along the boardwalk on Wednesday with my family, we decided to cool off in the sea, before going home for breakfast. I started walking down the stairs at Willard Beach when, suddenly, I was sitting under the stairs, peeping through the gap. The step had given way altogether. My son had to pull me out.
Thank God I only ended up with a few grazes and bruises. When I looked down where I had fallen, I noticed the vicious, long, rusty nail sticking out that I had missed. The dip in the sea there afterwards was a great relief.
My fall was not serious, but it could have been horrific! I sincerely hope that the municipality attends to the maintenance and lighting of our boardwalk that could be an amazing experience.
