Man oh Man.
This is one of the most beautiful places on earth. The weather is wonderful. Even though it has been rainy it does warm up and get sunny in the afternoon. The walk in the afternoon on the beach is always a true adventure. The kids excitement is beyond words.




The other day we want on an adventurous walk to explore the rocks. We hopped down the rocks to the slimy seaweed covered rocks, to learn that if you don't plan your foot right then your butt will be planted just right after your fall.


The little ones took a couple spills just to make sure they the best walk they could get. So our adventure was to go down and find crabs, muscles, any kind of sea life, and my favorite is finding sea glass. So off we go. It is truly amazing to see that little island are created just by muscle shells. Indian legend is that they would take the shells in boat and dump them in the sea and create island, and there are island that are just muscle shells and that is it.










So walking down on the sea line has been fun seeing the crabs and the brine shrimps. We have found parts of lobsters but haven't found a whole one. Unless you count buying them. It has been fun to just get out and explore the sea side.

I think the best part of the walk was when they actually thought they could get out on the water line to find themselves swallowed into the mud. The suction that held them there was amazing. So here you have kids stuck in the mud and laughing, into an almost panic state. You not wanting to get muddy. Yell stay calm we will get you out.








So you send the siblings out after said sunk sibling. They pull and tug and finally get them out of the mud. Shoe are an option. However we have found over trial and error that if you sink with them on then you might as well kiss them goodbye, unless you are willing to dig for them. So here we are on a wonderful summer adventure of mud bugging.



We have learn a few important things here. I have found that no matter if they rinse in the water they still smell of fish. No matter how many times you think that they will stay clean that is when they get the dirtiest. So you let them have fun and know that there is always a show to clean them up and soap to make them smell better. In the end of the day the memories that they have and can share are priceless.
