Merry Christmas
We've had some unseasonably warm days here. Usually we would have rainy, windy, chilly days and instead we get a chilly beach day.
This is the view of the Mary statue from the beach down below. If you can see those rock walls going up the side of the mountain, those are stairs that you can hike to get to the top. It's about a winding quarter mile of stairs. I have yet to walk them because of pregnancy but I hope do it soon.
They kids knew it was too cold to swim but they wanted to wear suits anyway. Savanna didn't want her suit. In this picture Sean is being Indiana Jones. He kept climbing the rock wall/hill and running down a sandy slide/hill and doing it all over.
Kaelin had fun letting her feet sink into the sand. She eventually fell in and got quite cold. Luckily it was time for us to go anyway.
We don't have any beach toys (lame, I know) so they dug with plastic spoons. This is actually the boat docking place. The real beach is on the other side.
this side has the boats <--- /This side has the real beach--->Savanna fell in and was not happy. I told her we could leave or she could go play more. She decided to play more. She also never wanted to change, it's now almost bedtime and she is still in those clothes.
It was by no means warm, just warmer than usual. I had to try and keep a blanket wrapped on Zach. The street behind us has a hotel and restaurants. The white building by Zachary's ear is one of our favorite restaurants. He will be 5 months on the 22nd! Crazy!
This is the actual beach, but it's set up for the windy winters here. Those green fabric walls work and wind breakers to help keep the sand where it belongs.I DID IT!
I have had a goal to get a picture of a cow close to the ocean. I see it all the time but I never have my camera. This time I did. Yeah! One more thing to cross off my Terceira list.
There's no cows in this one, don't worry, you're not blind. I just wanted to show the cliff, right at the edge of the cow field.
