A lesson in the sun

Phoebe with her prized possession



The 2 guys to the right were trying catch a fish - you can see their concentration - they circled the poor thing for ages walking through the sea like crabs - until some sun bathers showed up(2 sweet girls in bikini's) and the poor fish was forgotten.  It was sooo funny watching it all.

We popped into see the sea again yesterday.  It was another beautiful June day at the beach.  No waves - so perfect for swimming.  Phoebe and Sophie practiced paddling on their boards and did some snorkeling, while Jonah and Noah climbed all over the life saving beacon and used their force to scare the pigeons away. 

Brod and Sophie found an abundance of sea life under the pier - and loved it - until Sophie was stung by a blue bottle. Yowzers.  Phoebe caught a foamie, and enjoyed paddling around in the very calm ocean at high tide.  Noah and Jonah yelled, ran, jumped, climbed and got nice and wet.  I learned that when you sit on your towel a lot instead of being in the water - you get asked to watch strangers bags and take photo's for them. I met some lovely locals:)  So I got wet and played and watched the kids.  And it was lovely.  Lovely to be warm, and wearing nothing else but a costume and shirt at 2 in the afternoon.  Came home and covered up with 3 layers of clothing to try and get warm:(

Love to all.
