Just in the event you didn’t believe me when I told you that we rode bikes to the beach each day – here’s proof.  I finally got up the nerve on the last day to ride one handed so I could take a picture during the ride.  I took like 10 pictures, only two were not blurry.

I just had a bike and a basket (usually with my camera and purse), while JJ had to tote the beach bag, two kids, sand toys and boogie board.  I think we probably exceed the 100lb weight limit for our little cart.

You can see, however, how wonderful the paths were – they were shaded and off the road – the entire way. The kids enjoyed the ride, even opting for the bike on the one day I drove the car (Cailee and I had headed to the beach earlier while Connor slept). Once, they even fell asleep. Nothing like a little fresh air to put you to sleep.
