Daddy was home from work, and the sun was out, so we decided to have a beach day. But, as often happens, the weather fooled us. Though it was very sunny and warm at our house, the beach was socked in- fog, wind, big waves, and chilly. None of us minded too much though. You see, we're all used to NorCal beaches, and that's often what you get. It's my favorite way to go to the beach (though I do like to be able to splash around in the water too). Instead of laying in the sun, we wear sweatsuits. Instead of body surfing, we go beach combing. We watch the huge waves, we walk around the sand, and we have fun. We even followed the trail along the rim of the beach and stumbled into a "secret" forest. The kids loved climbing the trees, finding pine cones, and playing with sticks. It felt spooky and exciting, and I think we all felt hidden and far away- even though the parking lot was 100 yards away! What a perfect way to spend a beach day!
