We took a day trip to Rockport a couple of weeks ago and had a great time, despite the crowds and the jellyfish! The water was swarming with jellyfish! I've never seen it like that before. Luckily even though the kids got "stung" they said it mostly just itched.
We were setting up camp and Kyler came back from the water and said he though he touched a sting ray. So I went to check it out. He thought it was a trash bag, so he touched the top and then realized it was alive! He didn't get the name right, but he was correct that it can sting! YIKES! Luckily he touched the top and did not get stung, that time at least! We ended up staying all day and just collected the jellyfish in our buckets and stayed in shallow water where we could see where we were stepping.
It was still great to be at the beach, but we'll have to try again this summer so we can actually play in the water!
These are buckets full of jellyfish!
And we found hermit crabs on our walk down the beach! So cute!
They fed the seaguls from our leftover lunch, too!
Although it was crowded, we easily stayed more than 6 feet away from the other beach goers! Minus that little girl that played with Katelyn in the sand.
