We enjoyed our first day and night at the beach and ended up enjoying a couple more. We sent Oma and Opa to pick up the cousins and we stayed at the beach. They eventually came back out for a grilled meal with us and a little more time on the beach, then we headed back to the city. Maybe we'll get back out there. Here are a few more reflections...
We had a great time sea kayaking, although the water was a bit stirred up with sand. Lots of fun, and essentially the whole family got to go sooner or later. Auntie M had fun with the girls hair...
Opa came out and did a bit of reading with the kids... The cool breeze off the ocean provided a lovely background. B and little cousin J had fun on the beach. We used a liberal amount of sunscreen and hats.
The sand and palms were a lovely distraction. The palms are the Malayan dwarfs, which have replaced the Jamaicans which suffered from a blight. These are each imported here, and Uncle B had fun identifying and occasionally agonizing over the loss of native species. On the other hand, he had fun getting the coconuts down and we enjoyed the coconut water and the meat...
