Happy birthday Thud!

Today, to celebrate Thud's birthday, the entire English contingent (including V2 - English heritage, you know) drove over to Stinson Beach for a day at the seaside.  The marine fog has been a bit persistent of late, but today we couldn't have asked for better weather, it was just gorgeous.  The kids frolicked in the surf, I took photographs of jellyfish, the babies ate sand, we all got pink...the usual stuff you do on the beach.  Fun!
Our evening repast was not a crab-feed, as could possibly be inferred by the accompanying photograph, no, we were all too tired to prepare a huge birthday meal.  So instead we dined on take-out Chinese food; washed down with a 2005 Mumm Napa Valley DVX; followed by a wonderful chocolate cake made by Tenbellies.  Yum!
Oh! I do like to be beside the seaside.  A good day was had by all.
