Long Beach

We spent the day in Long Beach and I fell in love with this place. There was a section of sand that I would love to take to my back yard because of how soft and smooth it was. The kids and I enjoyed walking though it and rubbing our feet in the sand. 

The weather was clear and warm but the water was brisk! We all waded through the water and played in the sand. Richard made friends with the seagulls (a big step as he used to be afraid of them) while Hannah and Richard spent time looking for sea shells. Chris caught two crabs. One on accident and was startled to find out that it was alive and the other the size of his thumb nail (pictured below). Ella was adorable as she splashed her feet in the water and crawled along the sand. It was a lovely day.












After showering off the sand at the hotel we went to a fabulous Mexican restaurant called Acapulco. There is a fountain out front and we snapped a few shots of the kids making wishes.
