Call me crazy, but we tried the beach again. After last time, I was sure that we would not see the beach until next year. But Uncle Josh thought James needed another try. This time, we were at Jacksonville Beach, James had just napped, and we only stayed about 20 minutes. It was a success!
James got to meet his second cousin Kevin, who was visiting from Orlando, Florida.
This time it was not that windy so, he could open his eyes and look all around! He was mesmerized by the water. It seemed like he was soaking everything in and was very aware that he was in a new and different place.
Uncle Josh bought him a cool new hat from James’ favorite surf shop, Aqua East.
And they dipped their toes in the water (as James contemplated whether or not he deemed this acceptable.)
He certainly loved the way the cool sand felt on his feet.
Then James started fussing, rain clouds came in, and we ended our beach trip while we could still call it a success. Thanks Uncle Josh for getting us out there!
Part of me is offended he doesn't like trashy Myrtle Beach as much as Jacksonville Beach...the other part of me wants to nibble his precious sandy toes!!
