Lots and lots of rain . . . the waves were incredible but not for us to play in. The lifeguard’s flag was red all day and they were manning the surf warning people of the powerful water.
In the morning we walked the surf looking for jelly fish. Page and Declan had a system. One would put it in the net. The other would dig a hole and bury it. There were hundreds. The crazy thing is how quickly the sea changes. Upon our arrival there was not a jelly fish in sight. Yesterday with the storm, they were everywhere.
Wayne went to Destin and had lunch with Sparky. He confirmed that our winds were about 45 miles per hour. Wow!
The boys played on the laptop, watched Scooby Doo and played Wii. We also did laundry. Eventually, I pulled a puzzle out and we spent most of the afternoon and evening putting it together. Wayne and I loved doing it, of course, but to our surprise, Declan liked it too. Jett was the challenge. He was like a Ninja quietly sliding to the table, grabbing loose pieces and throwing them all over the room. Page was not much into it.
We were in the pool for a short period but the boys thought it was too cold. This was after they had been begging us all day to swim!
By about 5 p.m. the sun finally shone and the wind died down. We headed to the beach with everyone else who had been hibernating all day. We couldn’t go in the water, but we all wanted to be on the shore searching for shells and seeing the affects of the winds and water.
Beef tenderloin was for dinner. We are hoping for a sunny day tomorrow!
