oceanside 2012 - the pier

On Friday we took our annual pilgrimage to the pier.

Stick and the big kids were down at the Jetty boogie boarding and when they were done, we met them at the pier.

While walking on the Pier, we saw more dolphins swimming around than I have ever seen before. It was really remarkable.

Now, usually, we just go inside Ruby's and order a bunch of ice cream cones and walk back.

This day however, the wind started blowing and the temperature dropped as we walked down the pier.

Stick and the kids who had been boogie boarding, were wet and getting colder by the minute.

So we went inside and ordered food and shakes and malts and all kinds of good things to eat.

A fun change in plans, indeed.

(This says Thomas, but you can't really see it.)
