the gulf water in front of the aqua condo was amazing this year! sometimes the ugly seaweed washes up, but we had several days of beautiful, crystal clear, glassy water!!
calm waters are relaxing, but crazy waves are super FUN! i became pretty fearless with waves this year. i enjoyed riding in waves at the shore, but mommy & i also went out to the "deeps." most days, we swam out to a sandbar; i liked the medium-deep water that we had to pass through to reach the sandbar. when we were in the deeps & a wave would build up, mommy would push me though & over it. i named this trick a "speed boost!" we have no pictures of that, just memories! i always kept my trust becca-duck-floaty with me & i practiced kicking my legs, trying to swim.
we tried to keep a consistent routine: usually we were on the beach from 9am until 11am, making sure to reapply sunscreen. then we'd swim in the pool because it stayed shady until noon. somewhere in the middle of all of that, we'd take a break for an apple & juice. then we'd go up to the room for lunch. we like to miss the heat of midday.
