wingaersheek

We went to Wingaersheek Beach today, with Marte and Yair (J. worked, poor guy, having taken most of the past 3 days off). We had never been there before but had heard lots of good things. It was sunny and relatively warm (ca. 50 F) and after a series of cold rainy (or at least overcast) days, with a lot of indoor time, we were all itching to be outdoors.

It was low tide, and there was a big stretch of hard wet sand to run on



with funky wavy patterns in some of it.



The flat sand was good for writing on.



There were lots of big rocks to climb



and jump between



and jump off



with lots of tide pools to explore around and between the rocks.

Sam had a blast.



He fell asleep for most of the ride home (about an hour), and when he woke up, he said, "I really loved the beach. My favorite part was all the rocks."

The Bean slept the whole time, snug in a thick fleece bunting inside the ergo carrier. She woke up when we got back to the car, nursed, and promptly fell back to sleep for the car ride home.

In short: everything I'd hoped for. We have to go back soon with J.
