North Carolina - Day 3

North Carolina - Day 3

October 10, 2012

 

Today was scheduled to be a relaxing day on the beach.  Good thing too, because Jim had a bout of vertigo from wave surfing in the ocean the day before.  Apparently, a lot of swimmers get it when water gets in their inner ear.  Jim did come sit out on the beach with us in a sweatshirt and hoodie.  He was a little scary looking because he was very wobbly when he would stand up and a few times he could be found bent over vommiting into a hole he dug out.  Truthfully, he looked wasted.  By evening time, thankfully, he was feeling much better. 

 

Sammy burying himself in the sand...you can also see Jim in his sweatshirt hoodie.  A little comical when everyone else on the beach is in swimsuits.

I spent A LOT of time in the ocean today.  It was so relaxing just going up and down with the waves.

Also I really enjoyed watching the waves take out the kiddos.  All three boys got wiped out by this wave.

Sarah was in heaven.

We had so much fun today...the only thing that would have made it perfect is if Jim had been feeling better.

 

Tommy found a little crab on the beach.

Sammy spent some much time playing in the waves.

The kids really enjoyed the hammock on the deck.  If you look in the horizon you can see the ocean, we were literally, maybe, 100 yards from the ocean.
