Beach Day!

We've got some friends in town, which is always fun. Jen and David came down from San Francisco to visit and vacation for a week. Their pal Chris met up with them here. So the five of us have been hanging out. Unfortunately, on their second night here they had their backpack stolen- containing all the important stuff- so that was a pretty rough and awful night. If we haven't said it enough yet: Thieves stink. Scum of the earth.

After getting up late on Saturday and making a bunch more phone calls to help them cancel cards and whatnot, we all finally motivated to head down to the beach. It was a little cloudy, but around here that can actually mean a better beach day as it isn't quite as hot.
Of course, since we were headed to the beach anyway, Steve just had to try out his, um..., OUR new toy. Yessiree folks, thanks to the fantastic generosity of the folks at www.thegrowcerystore.com we now have our waterproof camera housing! Very cool. So far we haven't done anything worthy with it besides try it out... but keep your eyes peeled for many more aquatic images around here. They can't be much worse than Steve's first attempt at taking a picture while body surfing -->

Giving up on the body surfing and the camera for a bit, Steve paddled out into an angry sea to catch a wave or two while Jocelyn and Chris played Set (a card game introduced to us by our good friends Donn and Nora) After a few hours of intense laying-on-beach therapy, Jen and David seemed to be enjoying their vacation again, which made us happy.

From where was their backpack stolen?........beach, hotel room. car. How careful must one be?
 
The backpack was stole while we were eating at a restaurant. Unfortunately, it appears that the theives in question were quite professional and hit some other places that same night. Fortunately, this sort of thing isn't common... but it does happen. Like any tourist town- it is best to leave valuable in a safe at your hotel and whenever possible to leave bags attached to your person.
