Low Tide Beach Walk


Sunburst sea star - it was still in the water, so he was actually kind of soft and slimy rather than dry and rough like our previous sea star encounters. We could watch his tentacles help move him in the water.


Out of the corner of my eye, I saw something flop on the seaweed. It turned out to be a little eel - about 4 inches long. Momoka picked it up and helped return it to the water.


We love finding sea starts! Today we found a few eating crabs!


Ellena was excited to find our first orange sea star!


Jellyfish!


Riku found the jellyfish! He's so proud of his discovery!


Sand dollar sand bank. Digging for sand dollars!


Such a fun day! My college dorm clustermate, Dana, got to join us (haven't seen her in years!). Hoku and Link, who love photography came along, too. And the Schmidts had a grand time! When we got there, the water was still pretty high. Thank goodness it kept receding and we had an awesome adventure!!!
