Our last day at the shore was the only one that had less than perfect weather. We were spared the major destruction of approaching Hurricane Earl (I think that was its' name) but the waves were huge and we had rain, so the beaches were closed. No swimming or wading. Here is a picture of the kids on the end of the walkway onto the beach. Notice the waves were right up to it. Usually, we had quite a walk from the end of the sidewalk to the ocean. It was raining when this picture was taken, that is why everyone is grimacing and squinting.
Our last day at the shore and the kids are all posing with their amusement park prizes from the night before.
It isn't a great vacation without ice cream.
Eric took this picture with his professional camera our last night at the shore. Quinlan tried to convince me to ride with her but the four kids took up the entire space so I got out of it. I think if you click on this picture you will see that Elizabeth (far left) is cracking up, Meghan is smiling directly at Eric and his camera - she is an old pro at this picture business, Max (far right) is truly enjoying the ride and Quinlan (middle, next to Max) is screaming in terror!! Not funny for her but really funny for all of us. I think it was her idea to go on the ride in the first place.
Flashing the "peace sign" to signal a great day at school.
