Summer has Arrived! (part 1)

After many months of cooler weather, we finally have the hot days of summer. So that means a trip to the beach of course! (We like to go later in the day when we can actually find a spot to park and also a place to relax on the beach.) 
We love the relaxing sound of the seagulls...
...and the sound of the waves.
We loved watching the surfers, waiting for the perfect wave...
...and the fishermen, waiting for the perfect catch!
While we were sitting on the beach, a couple of guys flew overhead in their ultra-lite planes. 
What an awesome feeling that must be, hanging there in mid-air! And what a view!
On Saturday, we went to visit our son and his family. The day was very hot (it felt just like our hot season in Africa!) but we still enjoyed being outside. B's brother and family were visiting, so we were able to enjoy somebody else's grandkids! This delightful young man latched on to Jim and called him "Mr Grandpa" for  the rest of the afternoon.
E was her sweet little self...
K was in her glamour mood...
Strawberries for snack...YUM!
It was fun to just visit and hang out with family and friends.
Or just enjoy being with grandpa...
Or play in the water sprinkler...
This little girl found some sunglasses laying on the table...
...and soon they got passed on to big sister!
Such a happy little girl she is!
