So I think it will be a long time before Mapgeek and I have a vacation again. As told to me by a friend, when you have kids “vacations” become “family trips”. Gone are the days of sitting by the beach/pool, reading a trash-mag and sipping a fruity drink. The beach now consists of running up the beach after the baby, running down the beach after the baby, distracting the baby from poking sleeping sunbathers, distracting the baby from taking off with other kids’ toys, etc. We had a great time watching our little girl discover the beach and all the joys of sun, sand, and water. She loved it! As if we had any doubts….
We’re still competing with naptime, so our days consisted of getting up around 7, eating breakfast, and heading to the beach. Then it’s back around 11 for naptime and lunch. Then back to the pool in the afternoon for an hour before the second nap. I felt like we were on the move the entire time. It’s hard work entertaining a toddler! The weather couldn’t have been better though. Mid-80s all week and no rain while we were there. Of course, then we get back to Atlanta and it’s been 95 ever since. We’re definitely ready for fall here.
