Spring Break Part Two

As I said in my last post, we spent one day at the beach during our California trip.  The temperature was in the upper 60's; while it was warm enough to lay out, the water was a little cold.

Look Ma - no hands (or arms, or body)!

The water was chilly!
 
This was Mathison getting braver.  He kept dashing into the water, going a little deeper each time.  This was all fine and dandy until a wave knocked him over, rolling him around in the muddy sand:


It's hard to tell in this picture, but Mathison had sand EVERYWHERE - in his hair, in his ears, in his nose and mouth, and even in his eyes.  Luckily, it was a state beach with nearby bathrooms, so we were able to quickly clean him up!


Free at last

Beatty's bumming at the beach

We enjoyed our time at the beach, and it was nice to have break from Disneyland for a day :)

Looks like you had a great time. We probably should have breaked between our Disneyland days also.

It seems like the Pacific ocean is cold regardless of what time of year you go. Looks like fun. Mathison shares the same nervous apprehension for the water that his aunt Kim has.
