A Busy Beach Day

On June 26, 2013 Atlantic City hosted the 11th annual Air Show.  It was estimated 400,000 people watched the show from the beach and boardwalk.  This year's show did not include any military acts and was strictly performed by civilian performers.  Without a doubt they did an excellent show with their dips, dives and calculated maneuvers.  Both the airshow and beach activity were fun to watch and take photos of.

The brightness of the sun often made it difficult to see what you were going to capture in your photo.

There could have been hundreds of planes but these children were having the greatest time in what appeared to be a wading pool.  Actually the tide was coming in and this was the perfect location for safe water, buckets and shovels.

The smile face balloon made it easier to find home base.

Looks like someone has been to the tropics.

The water temperature was somewhat chilly but the waves and sand were refreshing to all ages.

 

 This young man did not make it to China but you have to give him credit for trying.  He was a really nice guy.

Dad had just as much fun creating his son as a mermaid, not once but twice, since the little guy moved and Dad had to repeat the tap, tap, tap of the sand.

Meet Sunbonnet Lady.  I named her after "The Sunbonnet Babies"  primer elementary reading book.

The security officers did a wonderful job riding their all terrain vehicles.

Children can find a way to make the best of things even if means scratching the beach sand with your fingers.  Lovely child.

The lifeguards were on alert at all times.

Beverages could be purchased on the beach.  These waitresses had to do a lot of  walking through sand and more sand, but then maybe walking does help.

Before this little toddler was put in the playpen she was covered in wet sand, and she didn't mind one bit.

And so my post comes to an "end" that is until next time.  Thanks for looking!!!
