Hunstanton

We've had a couple weeks off of school which has allowed for a good amount of play. The kids and I headed to Hunstanton, which is on the east side of England, to experience some play on the coast. We had a really fun time and look forward to going again and being able to do and look for some things we didn't have time for this go around.

We started our day at the Sea Life Sanctuary, which was neat. (Just for any possible future reference or consideration... this place probably seems slightly overpriced for what it is... but it was still fun for all of us and enjoyable. We probably won't find it worthy of paying for a second time though.)

The kids were able to touch a starfish right off the bat, which was awesome.

These fish seem huge to me;

I love see-through underwater tunnels. We were able to watch some neat sharks swim over us.

Koen was the bravest of us all and allowed a cockroach to crawl on him.

The playground was the kids highlight.

Hadley is showing me where she keeps her animals in the ship.

We then headed towards the light house and down to the beach.

The kids had a blast playing in the water. Hadley's expressions are the best.

There were shells a plenty. Macie and I especially loved picking some out.

Next time, I need to remember a beach chair or towel to sit on and just enjoy watching the kids. We had a lovely time.

Hadley's face is accurate to her feelings at this time. Her feet were wet and tired. Koen's feet weren't better either. His wet, sandy feet were rubbing against the inside of his boots, so he went barefoot, which wasn't too easy on the rocky part of the beach either. He did a better job smiling through it though. :)

Macie rode on my shoulders and as we walked passed this blackened wood. She started to tell me we were passing a baby. She was quite concerned about it and unhappy I'd keep walking. But once we got a closer look, she was satisfied and okay with moving on.
