Hard Rock and the beach

Today Veronica was invited by her friend, Steven, to go to the Hard Rock theme park. They got there at 10:00 a.m. (his parents took) and were calling me at 12:30 to come and get them. There wasn't much for them to do there. Thankfully Steven had free tickets or it would have been $50.00 each down the drain. They rode all the roller coaster multiple times and that was all there was to do.

After I picked them up we decided to head to the beach for a while and not let the day end so early. We went up to the point, which is our family's favorite spot. It is actually an inlet area...you can see in the picture an island behind Veronica. When low tide is in you can swim across to the island. When it is high tide the current from the coean is way too strong and too far to swim across. We walked around for a while and check out the beached jelly fish and hermit crabs. I then told Steven to give me his cell phone. He looked at me and smiled. The picture below is the result of our scheming. He promptly threw Veronica into the ocean. It was great.

After hanging at the point we then went to a locals spot for surfing and hanging out (8th Ave. North). Not many people were there, but the dunking and swimming continued for Veronica and Steven. Cole and I stayed dry on the beach. After about 30 minutes we all got in the car to take Steven home. We all agreed that we had a good afternoon. Steven even said that it was more fun at the beach than it was at Hard Rock.
