We found them without too much trouble, conveniently located near the bathrooms. Lexi and I found them down playing in the water and joined them for some fun, before returning to the blanket to check out the hole they had been digging "to China" (honestly - where do they get this stuff??). Lexi was obsessed with eating sand. Not sure why - it really can't taste/feel very good after the first mouthful, but everytime I looked away for the tiniest moment, her fist full of sand would immediately bring another pile to her mouth. Sigh.
Everyone enjoyed lunch and then we packed everything up and headed back so that Jackson and Lexi could take afternoon naps. We took a slight detour to the playground, but didn't stay long as it started raining while we were there. Then it started POURING as we ran to the car. Lexi was having a blast and actually got really mad when we tried taking her out of the umbrella stroller to go in the carseat, so since we were already soaked to the bone and we were both in our bathing suits, I told Luis we'd walk back and meet him and the boys back at the condo. By the time we arrived, the rain had essentially stopped and the sun came back out.
After the kids woke up from their naps, we headed over to Fox's for dinner. They remodeled the inside since last year and looked great. Luckily, the wonderful menu hadn't changed and we both had some delicious seafood. The kids behaved (more or less) and it rained while we were having dinner - but the sun came out just as we were walking out the door, treating us to a gorgeous, enormous rainbow right over the Nubble Lighthouse. It was amazing. So we all walked a bit closer to the Nubble, took a couple of pictures and headed back to Fox's for some ice cream. Yum.
Just about the most perfect vacation day.
