Beach Bum

What Eloise likes to do when we go to the beach is to hang around at the top of the beach making vague attempts at making sand castles.

Then she'll find some water, sit down in it, complain that her shorts are wet, and take them off.

Then she'll find some other water, lie down in it, complain that her shirt is wet, and take that off.

If we haven't planned for this and slathered her all over in sunscreen, this generally merits a premature end to the beach activities.

If we have, then she'll move onto the hat.
