Seaside was a lot of fun as well. We got to go on another great hike and of course enjoyed exploring the beaches looking for shells, starfish and any other treasures. The kids came home with a bucket full each.
Some of us went to the old aquarium downtown. Owen and Ryan fed the seals which was fun for them, though they did get a bit wet I think. They all enjoyed the tide pool and actually being able to hold the starfish.
The highlight was the octopus. Such amazing creatures they are.
Everyone got to play some games and do lots of running around and seeing beautiful places. Julia first signed “milk” while there. Pretty impressive. I know my girls, as did I had a good fun vacation and visit with everyone.
The only downside to the trip was losing about 3 weeks worth of pictures (the best ones of course) because our memory card was damaged by an un-named 2 year old. We must take some blame of course for leaving it in her reach. You’ll just have to make do with the ones that remained. (I still don’t know where they disappeared to. Anyone have any ideas, please let me know.) So, sorry if you don’t like the pictures I put up or if you feel I’ve missed you.
