Thursday we went to the South Beach area of the island. This is one of the more popular areas for tourists, and the beach was MUCH more crowded than the first time that we went. It was earlier in the day so it was a lot sunnier and warmer out, which made it more enjoyable for the boys to go out in the water. I got my feet wet (as you can see here), but I didn't take part in getting in the ocean. Sharm, Genesis and I walked along the shoreline picking up shells, and we both found sand-dollars. Mine was still alive and red on the bottom, I don't remember if Sharm's was. They're a really interesting creature if you ask me. Genesis and I left the beach a little earlier than the others so that we could walk through some of the local shops in search of Hermit Crabs and an Airbrushed Shirt. I found the "Shell Shop" where my friend Alicia used to work when she lived down there (which is where I got my first set of hermit crabs) and bought two crabbies. Then I seen the Airbrush booth, went to speak with them, and was extremely disappointed in their quality of work so I decided not to get anything from there. Around the corner from the Shell Shop was this store called "Del Sol" (which coincidentally is what type of car that Kevin drives). They specialize in color-changing products. Everything from jumpropes and frisbees to t-shirts, handbags and fingernail polish. This is where I bought the souvenirs for Pierce. I got him a color changing shirt and a little thing of color changing SLIME. I also picked up Kevin a necklace that had a few color changing beads on it. He had been looking for a black shell necklace, but this one had black coconut pieces. Wasn't sure if he'd like it but he's been wearing it! yay!
