Lydia LOVED the beach! She cried when I tried to get her out of the water. Even the crashing waves and rising water couldn't keep her away from the salty sea! She started to cry because her feet were freezing, but didn't want to be taken from the water. She will be a surfer girl some day! As for the rest of us land lubbers the sand was the ticket! We could have played in the sand all day, but we didn't bring an umbrella, which was a shame! Molli took home a very expensive souvenir from Santa Cruz beach- A massive sunburn!
