A final farewell to Ferry Beach.

Maya scoured the beach each day and collected many treasures including sand dollars (only the dead ones), various sea shells and rocks.

On an early morning walk, I came upon this fellow who was bringing home breakfast for the family.

Kyle and Seth hangin’ with their dawgz.

Nicolai posing with the highly coveted “Elephant” trophy on which his name is now engraved for last year’s croquet tournament win.

Seth attempting to reach launch velocity on the swing set.

Nicolai demonstrating proper corn shucking technique or rather his significant displeasure with this very tedius task (they had to feed the entire camp).

Maya spent countless hours on the beach and playground connecting up with her friends from last summer.

Dad found adequate time to rest his eyes and allow his nose to recuperate.

We made sure that Seth was well nourished, although we did manage to sunburn him on the first day.

Carl got up early each morning and went in search of photo ops. This is the seaside village of Scarsborough.

Frank helped pass the time before dinner arrived by lending his nose to Maya who attempted to remove it from his face during some kind of game they had invented.

Angela and Maya snuggling at dinner on our first night out. We went to a local sea food restaurant which was only mediocre.

Jeanine was in fine form and made it all the way to the tournament finals with some unbelievable clutch shots. Nicolai unceremoniously dispatched his father’s team (which had survived two 90 minute come from behind wins) only to be defeated by his mother, who avenged her loss to him last year.
