More Fun at Lake Michigan

I took K and B to the lake today. Kylee wanted to work on her tan (even after I delivered what I believe to be a compelling argument for wearing sunscreen) and Baker loves to play in the sand and the water. Due to recent heavy rains and flooding area beaches have been closed for 48 hours or so -- including our go-to spot, Oak Street Beach. Oak Street was closed again today so I researched our options and found several good beaches that were open. I landed on North Avenue Beach -- a new place to play, a big adventure and only a bus ride away.

Or so we thought...

A 30 minute bus ride led to a short stroll...an inquiry with a very friendly mom who politely explained (with an enchanting Irish accent) that we were a LONG way away from where we needed to be...several phone calls to Kevin...Iphone mapping...and a 10 minute cab ride later...we arrived at North Ave.

We stayed all afternoon and played and ate lunch and had a really great time. And Kylee has the PINK shoulders to prove it.
