Beach babes


Sun....



Surf...




Sand...


Glorious peaceful serenity wouldn't you think...?


Nope...


Not when you're accompanied by these four cheeky monkeys!


So, Hubby came back last week for Kung Kung's birthday and was supposed to bring us to the beach the  following day for a two-night stay. Unfortunately, he had to fly back to Bintulu the next morning for an unexpected meeting!

That meant I had to bring the kids myself. I couldn't cancel the trip, because the kids had been looking forward to it for ages, and furthermore, I had already paid for it.

The beach is less than an hour's drive from town. I drove the kids up and we stayed at a front row chalet which was absolutely wonderful, because the beach was right in front of the room. I could keep an eye on the kids at the beach from a lounge chair right outside our door.

Hubby luckily managed to come back on the second night of our stay and took a taxi from the airport right up to the resort! Cousins Allyson and Michelle also joined us cos their Mummy and Daddy went off to climb Mount Kinabalu for the second time!

I took loads of photos on the first day since I was bored without Hubby around. Luckily I did, because it was nice and sunny and the pics turned out really well. The other two days that we were there was rainy and overcast.

The kids had a blast building sandcastles, digging holes and basically just flinging sand around...


Climbing coconut trees...


Playing at the surf...


Playing at the pool...

And of course, catching tiny fish!

Solomon especially enjoyed himself, while Eva still didn't like getting dirty much and sometimes preferred to stay in the room watching t.v.! :)

Well, everyone had a great time, and went home happier.... and a few shades darker.
