Tide Pools

We stopped at a beach in Monterey with our friends the Nygrens from Commanche.
We have seen, or should I say smelled, more dead sea lions than anyone should in a lifetime. Now we know sea lions crawl up on shore to die in case anyone was wondering. And it takes months maybe years to decompose completely. Clay's just trying to get up wind from it. He was being very brave, believe me.Rain boots are a great idea for walking around the tide pools unless you slip just as the tide is coming in. Imagine that, 2 kids dumping water out of their boots moments after getting to the rocks.

So what do you do when your boots are full of water and sand? Use them for handy dandy carriers for your shell collections.
