La Jolla Shores



On our visit to sunny San Diego, we took a lazy
day to soak up some sun and enjoy the beach.
We asked around and were recommended La Jolla
Shores, a small beach just north of San Diego. The
girls had a great time burying Daddy in the sand...



watching the new surfers try their luck or hone
their skills,



watching Daddy grow an awesome
six pack in a matter of minutes,




and rollicking in the very gentle waves
with their hero, Daddy.



We borrowed the hotel's pack'n'play and Max slept
for a little over two hours on the beach! When he
woke up, he was in great spirits! He has one
of the most expressive little faces. I can't decide
what he is thinking here.

The only drawback for us at this beach was the shores
were riddled with huge seaweed drifts...I don't know
if it's always like that here, or if it was a fluke caused
by the tides. Parking is also slim pickins', but we
managed to find a good place relatively close, so
we must have had Jonny's good karma that day...
he claims to be a good luck charm for finding VIP
priority parking spots.

The weather was oh-so-perfect and it was a nice
treat to have a leisurely day without rigid scheduling.

Next stop...Sea World San Diego!

oh how I love the beach! Sounds like a GREAT day. I love how Max took a nap out there. Delaney would have done the same, she loves to be outside and is very calm and happy when we are outside. What a lovely day you all had Mandy.

That's the beach we go to, too! I grew up boogie boarding there. Not usually so much seaweed. They may have just cut it, too. Yuck.
