Beach bums

We spent most of our first week in California unpacking, but our first big adventure was a trip to the beach just a few days after arriving. We're about an hour away from a handful of beautiful beaches. We quickly discovered that the Pacific Ocean is way too cold to go in past your knees, but the sand and sun (well, clouds) have been great!  We've spent most Saturday's at the beach and have visited a new one every time. The kids love it, and we love it too!  What a beautiful place to live!
