A great day to be at the beach.

It was overcast but warm as we headed to the island.

We were greeted by some playful Harbor Seals.

The tide was in and the water fun began.

Then the tide went out, the sun came out and it was time to start the digging and sandcastle making. I think they were actually Volcanoes and Mount Olympus and there may have been a magical river in there too, because a simple sandcastle is not what this group is about.

It was also time to run in the shallow water and splash in the puddles.

One last dip in the water...

...and we headed home, happy and sandy.
