San Diego Tide Pools

When we were in San Diego, we decided to hit a cool tide pool area way down in South San Diego. (We were south enough that our cell phones thought we were in Mexico and wanted to charge us international rates.)
It was a perfect day, beautiful weather, and of course, the ocean. I love the ocean.
Jordyn and Tyler in front of the ocean:
Reagan and Matt, looking out.  Nah, this girl doesn't like her dad. At all. Can't you tell??
This is looking down to where we went.  We got there at higher tide, sometimes it's really low. 
Matt loved taking the kids to look in the holes in the rocks, and the tides to see what creatures they could find. 
Grandma gave the kids great lessons on what animals were there. They loved it!
Reagan just wanted to play in the water.
A wave! 
Grandpa and Reagan
This is when they saw a giant crab coming towards Jordyn's feet. 
Love this picture of my little man. 
Happy girl 
A seashell!! We may or may not have accidentally taken some with us. And you weren't supposed to. Oops.
So pretty. 
My dad got everyone to skip rocks. I got this cool action shot. 
And, a family picture. It was a great day.

You got some great pictures! I loved the wave shot. That was an awesome action shot. I wanted to see a picture of the crab that jordyn was trying to get away from. :) I loved that picture of Tyler that you said you liked. And I was confused about the skipping rocks picture. You said your dad took some really cool pictures of the skipping rocks, but he was in the picture. :) that place looked really neat!
