A day at the beach

We had a great time at the coast today. We got to Sea Side around 11:30 am after a quick stop to pick up Todd and breakfast at Jack in the Box (a very delicious roadtrip tradition). It was an overcast, but not cold, day.

The beach was popular but not too crowded because it was so big. We made some mistakes as we are not seasoned beach bum veterans, namely we forgot dogggy poop bags, set our stuff down too close to the incoming tide (wet beach towels are heavy), didn't bring enough water, forgot the dog brush and treats, and lastly let captain pee on Todd's back pack. However, through all this we still managed to have a great time.

Captain's favorite part....running in the surf. Miss Pup's favorite part....chasing seagulls and eating crab legs. My favorite part...coming home and taking a shower.

Some highlights:


Todd didn't want to get too wet

Captain was actually terrified of this crab leg
he's about to bolt

Its frisbee time!

Captain totally loved this new experience

Weee!

Poor Todd had to ride in the back
Out to sea
Its kind of silly to shake off when you're still

Getting the stuff before it gets wet
Happy Pup!
Very tired on the way home
