Labor Day

On Labor Day, we played on the beach again in the morning, after having a little breakfast in the room. We did more castle building and some smashing, and walked a little by the shore. The tide was coming in very fast, and Ben was a little spooked by the waves. His mama made a series of 10 little castles as sentinels, so we could watch the progress of the tide coming in as they were swept away. We brought leftover muffin along to the beach so that Ben could feed the gulls, because feeding the gulls is central in Curious George Goes to the Beach. Ben had a fun time feeding them, although one of them stepped on one of the sentinels. After the water came up near our castle, we took a quick swim in the hotel pool (Ben enjoyed it although it's very different from the lake), went out to breakfast, and went home to get ready for the beginning of the new semester.
