Operation Sandcastle was so much fun that we're going to do it again! The general plan is that we head down to the beach for the afternoon, and do beach things; swim, drink, picnic, throw a beachball around. Then in addition, we will pull out the fun-noodles and super-soakers, build sandcastles, dig foxholes, and chase each other round in the surf (i.e. have a battle). Expect to go in the ocean.
It'd be a good idea to take a couple of PET-bottles of fresh water for your supersoaker, because seawater will clog up the works. Now also is a good time to buy a fun-noodle.
Lots of people got sunburnt last time, so remember to take sunblock and apply it liberally (especially to your nipples).
