Little Miss Adelaide, seasoned jetsetter and professional charmer, headed north a few weeks ago to visit her PA relatives. After a successful visit (no contagion, no “weather events”) with the fam, we packed the minivan (yes, the Connors still rock the Grand Caravan proudly) and headed south via Aunt Beth’s house all the way to the Outer Banks.

While the weather was a bit chilly and the beachfront was downright cold and sandblasty, the solar-heated pool and hot tub saw good use. Addie dipped her toes in the pool enough to check the “she got in the water” box.

Addie really found her sea knees on the trip. That is to say she got her crawling skillz down to an art and proudly scurried around the house, dodging family legs and hunting for any small imperfection or stray object that might prove edible.

Overall the week at the beach was great fun with the whole family. Here’s the evidence as seen from Addie eye level, mostly.
