Despite the time change and a very tired crew, we made it to the tidepools yesterday.

And it was a success. We actually lucked into a guided tidepool walk and were treated to a whole bunch of useful information on finding and naming tidepool creatures. Em is officially ready to tackle her diorama now.

I love that photo above of her cradling the hermit crab, but I had to crop in on the incredible little crab…can you see his eyes and the dash of color on his little stripey legs? So cool!

There is indeed nothing like a day at the ocean to chase all of your worries and cares away – no matter how great or small they might be.
