I finally saw the latest Disney-Pixar collaboration (UP) today. I really enjoyed it, but couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed at the end. I wanted a little bit more of a wrap up, but thinking back I have decided that it was a very good ending: sweet but not too cliche.
We went to the beach after, and it was a beautiful day. I went with my little sister and one of her friends, who we were dropping home after the movie. We wrote our names in the sand, jumped off the low stone wall, and discovered the most amazing sandcastle ever. That would be a great date idea! This castle had a moat (of course), a portcullis made from some flat wood pieces and a sea star guard. Trapped inside was a dastardly (dead) crab, surrounded by little sticks creating a jail cell and small-ish rocks in formation under the direction of a pinecone.
It was so creative, and so many people enjoyed having a look, and even a play around (we added the starfish as a guard). What a great Saturday, truly refreshing and relaxed.
Up, up and away!

That is such a beautiful post - I can see you had a most wonderful time. Simple pleasures - they are the best, why don't we have more time for them?
It was so lovely. The beach is one of my favourite places to go, and so close to my house. I really miss it during winter! (I sometimes still go, but it's not the same...)
