Cousins 4/9

Saturday we spent the first of 2 days as guests in the home of Chris's cousin, his wife and their nearly 2 year old daughter, Grace. We had not yet met Grace and she was unpleasantly surprised when Chris appeared out of the guest room unannounced. She spent the rest of the weekend varying between suspicious and adverse to her second cousin. Luckily this did not transfer to me and we were fast friends. 

The crew did not let the rain stop them from getting out. We took a nice long walk on the beach of Pacifica, CA where we saw crabs and learned about goose neck barnacles. Note the resemblance to the creatures on Oahu. 

It was a beautiful shoreline with nature reserve and nice overlook. 

It made me think of some place like Ireland. 

After the walk we had one of our favorite activities, napping. 

Dinner was enjoyed at the local sushi resturant where Grace added edamame to her diet.
