We spent the day at the beach today. The sun shone all day and temperatures were comfortable (75-80°F). It was Exile #2's parents' first full day with us, so it was nice to have a good outing.The girls played on the beach with buckets and spades - of course a lake-beach can't give the full seaside experience - no tasting salt for the rest of the day, no getting knocked over by waves, no arriving to discover it's high-tide and there is no beach - but we made do. We had a picnic in the shade - retreated there again for drinks and ice-lollies, and the adults had short walks (in shifts).
But why 'back to the beach'? is it a pop-pun? No. We've been here before - remember? Day 17: A day at the beach.
Of course it didn't look quite the same on that occasion, and neither did the girls!
Glad you had better weather than we did yesterday - we lit a fire in the evening.
