By The Sea, By The Sea, You and Me. . .




We went to the BEACH over the weekend. It was so nice, warm-but-not-hot, and fun. I went into the WAVES a lot with my Mommy.

It all began EARLY Saturday morning. I was snuggled on Mommy's feet while she read. Then Auntie T suggested the whole family should go on an adventure IN HER NEW CAR. So we did! The Mommys packed food and water. Auntie T and the cousins gathered chairs, towels and umbrellas. Then all was carefully put into the back of the car, jigsaw puzzle-like - and we all piled in for the drive. Auntie T's new car is very roomy and all of us had our space, which was good.

We drove for a while, over mountains and past reservoirs. All of a sudden, after about 30 minutes of driving, I could taste the salt air and smell the ocean. We were at the BEACH! I loves loves loves the beach. The sand tickles my toes and the water is cool and refreshing.

The sun was hidden behind some fog when we got there but eventually it cleared up. Then it was really beautiful. I went on a bunch of walks with Mommy where we dipped our toes in the water. A couple of times a ROGUE wave would come up and we would find ourselves in water up to my CHEST! It felt so good! It smelled so good!



We stayed for about 6 hours before deciding to head home. I missed the BEACH almost immediately

Unfortunately, it playing in sand and in the water meant I had to get a BATH when I went home.

I was okay with that, though. It meant a lot of snuggle time with Mommy the rest of the night.

The beach is awesome! Unfortunately, we aren't allowed on most of the beaches here during the summer, but we go in the fall. The sand isn't as burning hot and the water is still warm enough to swim.

Looks like you guys had a great weekend!

Sounds like a lot of fun, Noodles! Glad you got to play in the water. I hope to get to the beach sometime soon - gotta wait for that perfect weather like you described (not too hot, not too cool).

-Love,
