Beach Day

Since we are on an island and about 20 minutes from the beach, we figured it was time to head over there. It was a beautiful sunny day when we started out, so we walked downtown and then took a bus to the New Brighton beach. The ride there was sunny...until about 10 minutes before we got to the beach. By the time we got there the sky was all gray, but no worries - there was still water and waves.



We took a walk on the Pier, where we watched some people crabbing. Seeing my zodiac sign being captured wasn't a thrill, but most of them got sent back and we didn't stay to watch too many get put into buckets.

Mostly we just did a lot of walking and playing in the waves and sand.... We were prepared for the wind and cold, and the fresh air and ocean breeze was wonderful, of course. It wasn't at all crowded and it was just fun to be able to run around.

It was a good day.
