Beach fire

We have had a few weeks of really nice weather, sunny, blue sky and some low clouds at night promising gorgeous sunsets. Since Monday was a holiday, it seemed the perfect idea to host a beach fire on Sunday night. Well, the weather that had been so perfect was no longer ... but it did not stop us. Lukas bundled up in his warmest clothes and we lugged tens of pounds of wood to the beach. Surprisingly many of our friends braved the weather for some fire, toasted marshmallows and great fun play - and yes the sun set, but did not give us a show. A great reason to schedule another fire soon!
The head lamp is vital! It gets very dark once the sun sets, and there are no street lights in Carmel. Try finding a shovel on the sand, a pair of brown flip flops or a marshmallow stick without a light and you too will realize the importance of a head lamp.
