Beach Vacation Week 2016: Day 1 - MUST Get to Beach!

After Pops cooked up a yummy breakfast and we finished getting our room settled in for the week, we headed down to the water for the afternoon.

There is a public beach on Bogue Sound near Nayne & Pops's house with a nice gentle slope that is a lot of fun.  At high tide the water 200 feet from shore is only about 3 1/2 - 4 feet deep, and at low tide there are tidal pools and a few raised sand bars to play on.  Another nice bonus is the channel is relatively close, so you can watch all sorts of boats going by!

Nayne and Mommy made sandwiches and brought a picnic lunch down to the beach for us.  Liam loved his turkey sandwich and lemonade on the beach!

And then someone took a hard nap, which no barking dogs, blaring party barges, or little kids wanting to make friends could wake for quite some time.

We returned to the house to clean up and eat dinner, then hung out for a little bit before two little feet carried Liam to flop sleepily into his travel bed.
