Jacki is here visiting so a trip to San Diego in winter isn't complete without a trip to the beach. Last night the weather said it was supposed to be 67 today. A little bit cool and not lay-out-at-the-beach-weather, but still pleasant. Fast forward to almost noon today when we head out to the beach and it's only 58 degrees. Oh well. Onward to the beach! After we parked, these four ducks came right up to us. They must be very well fed ducks because they must have thought we came just to see them and just to feed them some bread. They were really only 1 foot away from us. Kyle and Emily didn't seem to mind and Emily was just adorable having a conversation with the ducks.
Emily: Hi duckies. Whatcha doin' duckies?
Ducks (moving around us, still VERY close): Quack, quack.
Duck (poops)
Emily (pointing to the duck poop): What is that?
Mommy & Jack ignoring
Emily: What is that?
Mommy: That duckie pooped!
Emily: Dat duckie pooped! Heehee!
Mommy: Let's go to the beach now.
Emily: See you later duckies. See you when we come back to the car duckies.
So we walk over to the beach and are just getting settled in our space and the four ducks come flying over to us! Unreal! Like flying bloodhounds!! At this point though, Emily and Kyle had chosen some seashells for themselves and to take home for Daddy. The ducks approach and one of them is eyeing Emily, especially what is in her hand. No, it's not bread, it's the shell! And he takes it RIGHT OUT OF HER HAND!! And as you would appropriately surmise, Emily didn't like this very much! We were just astonished that the duck when right up to her and took it out of her hand! And I just happened to have the video camera rolling!

And Kyle got to take his first video with those silly duckies.
