The Young Man and the Sea

Our trip, of course, included Adam's first time at the ocean.  We were so excited to show him.  He seemed to like it until we actually went close to the water.  I think he would have been much more content to just play in the sand (or eat the sand), but we couldn't leave without his feet touching the Pacific!  We also discovered that going to the beach is a lot different with a baby.  We quickly learned that next time we'll have to be better equipped with a bigger blanket, umbrella, and other things that would have made it a bit easier.  Oh well, it was still great to be by the ocean again and show Adam what it's all about.

He was loving it while we were back on the blanket.
He was still pretty cool with it from this distance.  
Mama shows him the waves and the birds and boats floating in the water.
The big moment!  Adam's feet touch the Pacific Ocean for the first time!
As you can see from the video, he's not the biggest fan of the cold water.  The noise of the waves may have been a bit much, too.  Oh well, he's a first-timer.
