After a leisurely run on Coronado beach, I hopped on my bike and headed to Whit & Kathie's house. We packed up some snacks and beach gear and headed further north to Scott & Shannon's home. Just like me, they live in a great neighborhood two blocks from the beach. I had ridden through Encinitas several times on bike rides but had never really stopped to check out the beach town. Although I still think my beach at Coronado is better, Encinitas isn't a bad runner-up!
After we humped God only knows how much beach paraphernalia down to the coast, we staked claim to a sandy piece of real estate and hung out for the whole afternoon. I'm a minimalist for the most part, I purge my belongings every time I move and when I go somewhere I usually only bring bare essentials. In this case, a towel, sunscreen and fluids! Although I snickered at the amount of stuff 5 adults required for a few hours at the beach, I do have to admit that it was nice to have a chair to sit in!
What you see us doing in these pictures is pretty much how the afternoon went; lounging around and visiting. It was the perfect end to my hectic week and run down south of the border! I have some great shots of Kathie's belly containing a niece and a nephew (I'm confident they're going to have a boy and girl!), but I wasn't sure how she'd feel about her pregnant-with-twins belly being posted on the internet for the whole world to see! Maybe she'll let me sneak one in later. . .
