Today WE Give Thanks for Beaches

 

 

Today WE give thanks for beaches.  My great-niece Angelina is especially thankful for the beaches here in Puerto Rico during her holiday break.  She says, “They are great for playing and having fun and for making new friends.”

 

So today, my co-author, Angelina, and I are both very grateful that we have had so many wonderful days together with family and friends at beaches all over the place!  Some beaches even have showers – which are terrific for cleaning off sand after many hours in the surf.  Other beaches have food trucks with great empanadas and cold fruit drinks.  And some even have guys that come around to sell water ice (piragua) in flavors like coconut, passion fruit (parcha) or rainbow.

 

Adults can sit and relax on the beach, and they can watch the children play.  What could be more fun than that?  And…since there are also sometimes people selling piña coladas or mojitos in pouches, adults can even have their cocktail hour right there on the beach.
