Grand Haven, MI, USA - 6th June 2011

Hi Mom! Mel finally decided that if we wait for a nice sunny day when she is also off work, we will NEVER get to the beach, so she packed us up a picnic lunch and off we went!
There were big strawberries and raspberries for dessert, and w all ate so many! But the drink was chosen JUST for me! Mel says I can't visit Michigan without trying a Faygo pop, and she found one named Vanilla Creme just for me! It was yummy! It was made here in Michigan and the brand has been around for a long long time. (mel didn't realize this was still sideways, she'll fix it when she gets home from work. )
I'd already seen the beach and lighthouse, so I explained things to my new friend Cilly. She hadn't been here before, and I hadn't gotten to go close to the water last time, but today the water was nice and calm, so Mel let us get closer!
Cilly and I found some nice wet sand and made a sand castle! We named it Castle of the Lovely Bears!
Riin and Eri were exploring the shoreline too, and they found some pretty shells, that they brought over to decorate our castle!
Then my friend Buzz Bluejay came to se our castle, and said that every proper castle needs a flag. So he found us a feather from a gull and put it on the top! The Castle of the Lovely Bears was lovely indeed!
But then Mel's newest toy Horatio came by. He is a dragon, and he said that dragons were supposed to attack castles! And he stomped our castle into the sand!
Eri started to cry and Buzz got mad enough to give Horatio a bite on the tail! Cilly and I tried to cheer Eri up. Horatio felt bad and gave her a hug, too. Mel gave him a good long lecture on manners on the way home! He's going to travel soon and she won't hear of him wrecking his host's things!
As we were packing up and leaving, we saw this photographer and models doing a photo shoot on the beach. We all wondered what the photos would be for, if they were for a famous magazine! That would be neat!
Mel says that Buzz is leaving us later this week. I will miss him, but I know he is excited to travel! Then this weekend Mel promises us something else special. What a busy summer!
