Beach Day at Caorle

Saturday, July 22

Another fun and exciting day at the beach! We are certainly trying to take advantage of this being our last summer living in Italy and going to the beach pretty much every weekend. Or if not the beach we are traveling!

Today we decided to go to Caorle and our friend Jake came with us too. Last year this ended up being one of our favorite beaches because it is so open. Most beaches have rental chairs that go almost all the way up to the water, so you can't bring your own stuff. But here you have so much space you can sit almost anywhere and you were not going to have people right next to you.

The other weekend Preston and I bought the paddles with the ball to play on the beach with. So glad we did, it was a lot of fun! And plus, it was a baby workout trying to run/move around to hit the ball or when we had to go chasing after it.

We decided to rent another paddle boat, as the last time we were here we rented one and had a blast. However, this time was a little more frustrating than fun. It didn't feel that windy, but on the water our boat was rocking all over the place and kept going towards the shore very quickly. Needless to say it didn't make it any better that we were getting a little hangry, so made us a little more frustrated than usual. We still did get a few good runs down the slide. But I have to say, this was the first time I think we didn't make it the full hour we had rented the boat for. Luckily they are cheap to rent.


Definitely time for us to go eat. That is also one nice thing at the beaches here, there are usually multiple places to go eat at. We went to the closest one to our spot on the beach. We needed food ASAP! hehe :)

Now our tummy's were full! Time to go relax again on the beach until it was time to leave!

Another adventurous day at the beach for us!

Beach Day at Bibione

Saturday, 15 July

Another beach adventure for Preston and I and this time to Bibione! Today was just Preston and I going to the beach, we were going to have a beach date.


Today was another perfect day to go to the beach!

I had completely forgot how small the area is where you can bring and set-up your own umbrella and towels. All of the beaches near us there are usually already a ton of beach chairs and umbrellas set-up that you have to rent for the day. They are not that expensive, but you can't always sit as close to the water or exactly where you want when you rent these for the day.






















Since there was not much space and the tide kept rising there was literally only very small sections open to sit. We ended up sitting so close to the water, that at one point we had to scoot back as far as we could. But it also gave us a good reason to start playing in the sand, we needed to build a wall/moat to keep the water from hitting our belongings. I felt like a little kid again building castles in the sand!






After playing around for a while we went to eat a late lunch to them head back home. Nice quick and fun adventure to the beach!
