I'm always wanting to improve myself, you know? And making us better "beach people" seems like a good place to start my improvement plan. Well, I'm happy to report that we have once again continued on our year-over-year progress path. Sure, there are still some areas of improvement like, mainly, Coco's sleep, Coco's ability to detach herself from my person, Coco's ability to behave in a restaurant, etc. As you can see, we have one specific area to target for next year.
So let's visit the areas that seem to be well on their way to perfection:
- sitting on the beach for hours on end - we are just really, really impressive in this area.
- We have absolutely mastered sending Luke and Ade to flag down the Planet Ice truck on the beach and retrieve treats for the adults.
- Overall beach setup: chairs, umbrellas, snacks, coolers - set in a very strategic alignment
- Wave jumping - ok, maybe not me, but others (I did get in a few times), Luke =MVP
- Exploring new Dewey Beach offerings - this year's highlights were:
- Dewey Beach Beer Company
- Jungle Jim's water park (so much fun!)
- Que Pasa mexican restaurant
- Visiting our annual mainstays:
- The Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk
- The little breakfast place about a block away that seems to have no name
- Outlet shopping
- 35 trips to Walmart
We thoroughly enjoyed having the Gordons join us this year! We had lots of great food and conversation. I think my favorite part about our trips is witnessing the shear, uninhibited joy of the kids on the beach, in the ocean, on the excursions, etc. This was obviously a very quick recap of a fabulous trip!
