The Last Santa Cruz Trip

J is for Jarble, means to wet or to bemire. This is probably our last Santa Cruz beach trip this year. We took Trinity to the Board Walk for her first time, she was joyous to be there. While on the beach, she jumped up and down. Going to the beach is always fun, but there is the juggling part to bring all the items down that I am not so crazy about.

This is when I realized I need to be looking out for www.weightlossprogram.net. I feel sluggish and don't have much energy lately. I was told that I might be anemic, hopefully not, but to be safe I had blood work done and awaiting the verdict.

Another thing that most beaches are not so friendly about is having a restroom close by. When I asked one of the workers he told me to look for an address plaque down past the water slide. Once I past the water slide, I should be able to see the water log ride with an address sign. Go through the children play area and I should arrive at the restrooms on the right. Whew, I thought I would never make it, not to mention when Miss T wanted to go, it was like running a mile a minute while looking for these address signs.

Many of the signs were not obvious and if they were hung, they were in the wrong places. It is amazing that we were able to find the restrooms and make it in time for Miss T. The places they chose to hang these signs reminded me of London, where if you're not familiar with where to look, it isn't obvious.

  4. It looks like a delightful place to spend a day or more - until one begins the search for a public restroom. :) Good post.

  10. @photowannabe Sunburn is a pain, sometimes you don't realize you're in the sun that much from the ocean breeze.

  13. @SquirrelQueenYes, I think signs is the first thing they should invest in when thinking about remodeling.

  15. @ruthiHa,some of these new words are so awkward since we don't hear them a lot. People might not know what we are saying, so teach them first before you try using it. Smiles.
