Yesterday we walked on the beach, white sand running through my toes was the most relaxing feeling I think I have ever truly experienced (aside from a really good massage which put me to sleep in the first 10 minutes of the hour session I had purchased).
I said relaxing, yes... but have you ever really walked in sand? I mean really walked in sand, the kind of sand that you sink into because if you are like me, pregnant, heavy, and have tiny feet, your feet disappear into the sand as if you only have legs from the ankles up.
So here I am, enjoying the feel of the sand all over my bare feet, and it takes me three times as long to walk 5 feet in the sand as it would any other person. Sure I guess if I wasn't pregnant and off balance already or if I had bigger feet to spread out the surface area of my weight or perhaps if I was the correct weight for my size none of this would have even been an idea in my head.
But despite all the fuss I just made, I still made Daniel promise to take me to the beach more often... if nothing else but so I can enjoy the feel of the warm sand between my toes. ;-)

Awww man, I am sooo jealous. THe beach looks amazing! Just being on the beach, walking in the sand and hearing the waves is so relaxing. But you are right about hard work! My ankles usually hurt for a week after vacation. Think how fun it will be fun bringing the baby when she's a little older...

You are right -- Taking Juliette to the beach will be quite fun. I just have to remember to bring the ultra heavy sunblock to keep our little girl safe from the hot Australian sun.
