Tide Pools!

We went to the tide pools in San Pedro while we were in California. Basically there is just about an hour a day when the tide is at its lowest and then all kinds of sea creatures can be found in the rocks on the beach.
We had a great time in the sunshine. I think Wendell and Emily have found another sea slug or starfish. We all had to watch where we stepped so that we would not squish anything. This was one of our favorite things we have ever done in Long Beach.
The beach is nice and rocky which makes for perfect climbing for the kids and lots of hiding spots for sealife.
I'm not sure what Megan is holding, but it must be a little slimy given her grimace.
Tyler combed the beach looking for anything new. He didn't just want shells---he wanted the big stuff---like starfish, slugs, and crabs.

We love the tide pools too. You can search around the place forever looking for treasure. So much fun.
