Life's A Beach

We went to a beach playgroup today and had a wonderful time! Sis immediately had on her suit and headed towards the relatively calm water. Bud was a little more apprehensive but came along when I followed Sis. However, talk of jellyfish put them off actually entering the water and so we did some beachcombing. There, we found several kinds of marine plantlife--seaweed, something that seemed like it would harden into coral (but not, right, in the upper Atlantic?), several beached jellyfish, and a dead horshoe crab. With all of our friends in the water, Sis soon waded in while Buddy threw rocks and shells into the water. Soon they were (not quite easily or comfortably) scampering up and down the big rocks forming a little jetty. Sis would even step off the rocks into the shallow water and Buddy would jump over the cracks from rock to rock. All in all, a day of fun and adventure.
