Plum Island, MA

This past Sunday we went for yet another road trip...
and we always end up at the north shore, Newburyport was having a Memorial Day parade...and it was a great day to go to the beach.  So that is what we did...walked around town, dance to the music of the Beatles...that is what the band at the waterfront was playing, had a slice of pizza, ice cream, and right after that it was time to look for a beach and go cool down (and if you have been to MA beaches you know what I mean...the water is always cold!)
After a short drive, we ended up at Plum Island...we had been there before years ago, but until now I finally payed attention and realized that every time I read of beaches to go and encounter Plum Island...well, now I know I have known for a while about it.
For being Memorial Day weekend the beach was not packed...we found a spot for all of us, and specially for Ella Maria to use her beach tools...and she went right to work!  And as usual she spend the entire afternoon moving sand from one spot to the other...
She had lots of fun...and that is all that matters!  It was hot but with a nice breeze to cool the hormonal mama down every so often!  It was a great afternoon!
We will see were our next road trip takes us to...or what our next adventure will be...we have one promise pending...boat ride!  We offered Ella Maria a boat ride if by the summer she was done with dippers and using princess underwear...and she is done with diapers and wearing princess underwear!!! Now we need to keep our promise and take her for a boat ride...
Next adventure...here we come!

and now some pictures...
to the cold water!!!
and then to the sand to build a princess castle...

Rock Star...ready to go back home!
