Life's a Beach!

Even though the weather couldn't have been more perfect last weekend in San Diego, we were still surprised how pleasant the beach was at La Jolla. Parker kept saying over and over "I wanna go to the ocean." So, we did! Watching Marley have her first experience with the sand and sea was so special. I loved watching the salty foam curl over her little chubby feet. Parker, of course, couldn't get enough of the water. Becky and I think he may be a marine biologist when he grows up. Even more than snakes and lizards, he loves 'sharks, orcas, and sea lions, Grandma!' He played and played in the waves...and almost lost his britches in the process! We watched the surfers, Travis buried Parker in the sand, and we all just enjoyed the beautiful sunny almost windless day.

As much as I enjoyed Collioure and the Mediterranean, there's something about salty air, crashing waves, and surfers that satisfies my soul at a deep level.
