These pictures are from September 6, 1999.

Monday and Tuesday were both really good days at the beach. These pictures are from Monday. We were having too much fun Tuesday to take pictures. Tuesday the wind was perfect.  I flew my new 6' delta kite, as well as the shark kite.  It is really fun to fly the shark kite over the beach.  It catches people's attention. The wind was so good that I launched, flew,  and landed both kites without ever leaving a sitting position on the sand.

Riding the waves and building sandcastles are what beaches are made for.

Here I am waiting for the perfect wave:

Here I am having caught the perfect wave. "Catch a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world":

And... landing on the shore.  Then you go back and do it all again.

Here is our medieval mansion, complete with grotesque gargoyles:

Here is a closeup of the aforementioned gargoyles. Cricket is in the background getting more wet sand.

This is our last vacation postcard for this year. We hope you enjoyed sharing in our vacation.
