The Ocean!

Well, technically it was Long Island Sound. We made a trip to Hammonasset Beach State Park and I got my first real taste of the ocean (literally). 

We had a blast playing in the sand. 

And of course, I had to taste the sand too.

On our way back, we stopped in the quaint little town of Essex. I was napping though from playtime at the beach, so just the boys went out on the dock along the Connecticut River.
