This morning we all slept in, even Madeline. With black out curtains it was really nice to not be woken up by the sun coming in through the windows. We spent the day just relaxing around the pool. Marriott knows how to do vacation rentals right…too bad their ownership points system is such a rip off and horrible mess. The pool was great and Madeline even got in on the action. The most fun thing to see was how facile our kids are in the water. Swimming really makes them comfortable in the water and the swim with such alacrity.
At night, we went for a hike down to the beach at Crystal Cove. It’s always fun to go to the beach. The walk was fun and seeing the giant sand wheel chairs was worth it on its own. There is something therapeutic about watching the waves crash on the rocks and sand. The ocean is the one thing that you can’t get in Colorado. It was so great. Our family could spend all day exploring the rocks, nooks and crannies of the coastline. There is an endless amount of fun to be had. After Crystal Cove, we went out to dinner to a crab shack place. It was OK, but the doughnuts afterward were worth it. The coast is windy and cold at night, so we headed home after walking out on the Pier a little.
