Beach Nap

After having lunch at Happy Belly's, which is on Jobos Beach, we went a little further down the road to Montones Beach for the afternoon. Montones is a relatively quiet beach (more people than on Shacks Beach back at our condo, but not nearly as many as Jobos) with a neat sheltered pool on one end where the water is shallow and protected from the waves - it seemed like the perfect place to give Evan a little more ocean time.

Before we could worry about that he needed to take his afternoon nap, though (that's what you do on the beach after lunch, right?). I don't normally write blog posts about Evan's naps, but this was his first one ever on the beach! Exciting, huh? Plus, he got to sleep in a tent - kids love tents!

As you might be able to tell from the picture, this was no ordinary tent - it was Kelly & Josh's Instent! It has a rather clever frame mechanism that sets up super-quick... I thought it was cool, but Evan didn't seem that impressed.

We don't have any pictures from Evan's time in the water, partly because Steph and I both wanted to be in the water too and we didn't want to risk getting the camera wet, but mostly because Evan didn't enjoy it very much. It was extremely windy when we were there (as it is most afternoons on the northern shore of Puerto Rico), and Evan seemed like he'd had enough excitement for the day by then. This was probably because of the tent.
