A baby at the beach

(WARNING: Excessive amounts of pictures were taken during this trip but I did try to be selective about what I am putting up.)
Here are the pictures I promised. Here is Lucy enjoying her first flight.

As I said before, it went pretty well. We did drop a toy and forget to pick it up before we got off, but she got an even better replacement a few days later so she isn't complaining.
We got to Miami Monday afternoon and after checking in to our hotel and grabbing a quick nap, we headed out to the beach. On our way, we stopped to get food at what our travel guide called a local, hole-in the wall spot. As it was local and certainly a hole-in-the-wall place, I can't say the guide actually lied to us, but I will say that neither of us was too comfortable there. I didn't eat or drink anything and Craig might have regretted that he did.
But once we got to the beach, things were looking up. Of course, by then Lucy was all worn out. She spent the first 45 minutes of the trip like this:

She did eventually wake up though. At first she wasn’t too sure about this whole beach thing.

But eventually she came around – kinda.

On Tuesday Craig had work to do and Lucy and I did some other stuff so we were too tired to venture out in the afternoon but Wednesday Craig finished up early so we tried a different beach (after a stop for some yummy Cuban food at Cafe Versailles). This time she did actually seem to really like the beach, as opposed to her tolerating it on Monday.
That’s enough talking, here is what you really want – more pictures of Lucy on the beach!

As you may have noticed, the whole beach thing was basically a photo op. But how could I not take a picture of this?
