Venice Beach

Monday morning we all headed out to Venice Beach! We were able to meet up when we got there.

Ollie & Vivy had a great time playing in the sand.

Tyler helped Ollie & Vivy find tiny crabs! They had a huge collection!







Ava & Larry playing catch with a football.



Time to fill the moat! They kept bringing up buckets of water and then running back for more. By the time they came back the water had soaked into the sand and they would have to start all over again!

There were very interesting shops and people to walk around and see.


Papa took a break and took Ivy to the park for a bit!
Everyone is on their phone or ipad looking for a place to eat dinner. What would we do without technology?

It led to a wonderful Italian Restaurant. We were able to call ahead and our table was waiting for us after we walked 1/2 a mile up the beach.
A great way to end a perfect beach day!
