One of our first priorities is always to set up a shady area since Lili and I burn easily. Lucky Libby tans, sigh! I hadn't been to the beach in the summer for several years, and it was really nice to be able to relax like this (even though I felt very guilty about not dedicating the day to dissertation work). 
Since we're in the middle of the World Cup in Brasil and the Dutch are doing well, I had to show my support!
She's testing the water!
The water glistened... and was reasonably warm!
After hours and hours, it was time to pack up in search of a Cape May t-shirt!
But first, a little Ben & Jerry's and a cup of coffee for me!
There was a cute little shopping center not too far from the beach where we score the requisite t-shirt at Beach Bums. Happy are we!
The challenge was getting out of Cape May- since traffic was jammed and rerouted due to some sort of bridge being closed. We sat in traffic for an hour only to be circled back again. Luckily, the drive home wasn't too bad and Libby got to see the New Jersey pine barrens- home of the NJ Devil.
That's a wrap for Cape May!
PostScript: Oh yes, Elizabeth's first surprise was having to pay to get on the beach and wearing your beach tag!
