When we got ready to walk to the beach Saturday, Stacey unveiled a surprise for Cora: this 5'8" softtop surfboard. She's expressed an interest in learning to surf, an interest Stacey is eager to encourage.
Uncle Bill found this board at a great price at Costco, so on our way up the coast, we stopped at their house and picked it up. The board stayed hidden in Rigo's camper until the right time came to get it out. Cora successfully laid on the board and rolled off, the two things Stace wanted her to learn on this first time out. Cora was disappointed she wasn't riding waves on Day One, but she's on that path.
Of course, Stace wanted to try it out too. He found it quite short - he was used to longboards when he surfed in England - and slippery. But he sure looked good!
Meanwhile, the little girls worked together to carry water to play in the sand. Then, they did some "boogie boarding," with Rigo pulling them through the water.
On Sunday, after we ate another yummy breakfast and pulled out of our campsite, we stopped at the beach again. This time, playing on the rocks was the planned activity.
