The Beach

Are you still there?

First of all I would like to say hello and welcome to new readers! 

I was taking a break in California with my kids and husband. It was a good trip and the last time I saw the sea it was in Brazil 4 years ago! I really like the beach and my children were amazed and so happy about it. If we could, we would move to somewhere not so far from the coast but we don't have millions of dollars. I liked Irvine city, seems to be a great place to live. I like where we are living right now too and I am grateful that we found a nice house, that is close to a good school and although is located in Arizona, we don't have severe summers like in Phoenix. Perhaps we will have flights from here to Los Angeles for a reasonable price soon so we can go back there sometimes.

Laguna Beach - California
The water was cold but who cares? Nothing could bother us. I had water up to my chest and all those waves could not scary me. I love swimming at the beach, but seeing a guy fishing a baby shark (catch and release) got me thinking for a bit...ooops, sharks??!! We saw big ones at the Aquarium, a cool place to visit with kids. At least less crowded. 

Well, it's summer time. We should not have gone to Disneyland. We thought that the kids would love that place. They are not big fans of Disney characters (me neither), I knew that but, maybe they would enjoy all those rides but hey, stand in line for like one hour and wish, wish upon the blue sky and hot sun and your dreams might not come true, sorry! And your only dream is to have that park just for you, right? Have you been there in the Summer time? I am not complaining, it's just the reality! In my humble opinion I think they should not allow so much people in the park at the same time. Hell, never ever again. The kids did not like it and we are glad that we did not buy tickets for all those days!  We rushed to the beach and nothing better and more relaxing than that! Next time we might choose Lego Land... or not.

I also loved playing with my camera, making silhouettes of my family and shooting the sunset.
