Everyone knows we are beach lovers!!! So we couldn't leave without visiting the beaches of Santa Cruz. We headed to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk which is the oldest surviving amusement park and one of two seaside parks on the West Coast of the United States. The kids thought it was really neat. We sat out on the beach and rested for a bit. Griffin wanted to know why there wasn't any seashells. Graci was so glamours in her cherry ruffled bathing suit with a geranium flower in her hair and her sparkly jewels on her bandage.
We let the kids ride a few rides and then we grabbed lunch and sat down at the picnic area. Right before leaving Thomas spotted a beautiful view down by the beach. It was where the sea and the sand rested along the rocky cliffs above the Monterey Bay. It looked so peaceful so we walked over there. It was breathtaking. You could see sailboats skim the water and if you listened closely you could hear the faint bark of the sea lions in the distance. It truly was the highlight of our day and it reminded us of God's nature and the beauty he created.
Tomorrow is our 2nd post!!
