Most afternoons Eric and I are on the beach from about 2pm to 4pm. If the water isn’t too rough and the sun is out….Eric will swim. I’ll swim if the water is warm enough and it isn’t too rough! This winter we’ve had a lot of big waves, rough water, cool water, north wind and clouds so…Eric hasn’t been in the water as much as usual.
This is a Saturday and the beach isn’t very busy…well actually it hardly ever is. Looking north.
Looking south and there are always a few people out in front of Torres although not as many as we remember from other years.
Even a few people in the water.
This little boy and his sister managed to amuse themselves with no problem. He was doing cartwheels and flips and his little sister was trying her best to imitate him.
She didn’t have much success! The people close to the water were busy taking pictures of each other.
I wonder if he’s in gymnastics.
He was a good big brother and piggy backed her and tried to help.
Today’s waves….a little large so Eric walked the beach while I sat and read. We’d seen a couple of small rays jumping out of the water but they were too quick for me to get a picture. One theory is that they are trying to shake off parasites but no one really knows. They had been jumping out of the water in exactly the same spot a few days ago so that’s a little odd as well. A mystery.
The parachute is up ….but no customers today. One day they had two people up in the big chute and the wind was so strong they couldn’t get the them down even though the boat had stopped! They were so high we could see the parachute from the RV park. Yikes!
Always something to see at the beach.
