the beach was a rock shoreline
with all these flowers growing out from amongst the rocks
very pretty

we took a bike ride to the park




 
then went back to the camp site for...
 
card playing...

 
bow and arrow making....

of course daddy got in some of his favorite stuff too....
toes in the sand with a cold beer in hand...
