Nico's First Trip to the Beach...

We took Nico down to the beach for the first time earlier this month. We headed down with Jeremy, Tracy and Addy after we attended Jake and Katie's wedding in Auburn. We decided to car pool and that provided a lot of entertainment. Think clown car and two kids sounding like broken records. I must say that riding down together was one of my favorite parts of the short vacation. It was pretty nice when we first arrived so we headed out as soon as we could. Nico was OK with the sand, but wasn't too fond of the waves washing up on his feet. The water was pretty cold, so I don't blame him.
So cute in his beach attire!
Day 2: The Monger family on the balcony at the condo.
It rained and/or was cloudy pretty much all day the second (and last) day we were there :( We did manage to get in the pool early in the morning. Nico LOVED the pool...maybe because someone left a ball. We also headed out to the beach for some after dinner fun. You can't tell from this picture, but Nico wasn't too sure of the wet sand at first, but he was eventually OK with it.
This heron was making it's way to a fisherman's bucket to steal a fish or two. It was a hilarious site. He would slowly sneak up on the guy and if he turned around the bird would walk away quickly. I don't think the poor bird ever got a fish.
Getting a little braver.
