H2O

Today we did something Alessandro has been wanting to do for a long time. We took Marco to a drive-thru car wash. It was so fun watching Marco's face. He thought it was pretty amazing. After that we had some lunch and went to the beach. Yes, for all you people who don't live in Southern California, the weather was amazing this weekend. Yesterday it was in the 80s and the 70s today. The beach was perfect. Here are a few pics and stories.

Marco was having fun running away from the water when the waves rushed up onto the beach.

At some point he started yelling at the water to stop. Alessandro's response was "Hey kid, who do you think you are? Moses?"

He made many friends at the beach. A guy swimming came out of the water and said hi. Marco took that as an invitation to join his group of friends.

Then we met a little boy named Eugene and Marco and Eugene took turns throwing sand and passing shells back and forth. Later still Marco decided to help these two build a wall.

It was a very enjoyable afternoon at the beach.
