Natan did put his feet in the water but it was too cold for me to even do that.
You can see from the trees how windy it was.
One of the condos on the beach, I really like the buildings on the beach in West Palm because they weren't giant skyscrapers that ultimately block other peoples view of the beach.
Me, I got to wear my new Sperry Topsiders, which I was very excited about. They are super comfortable and I really needed good walking shoes that I could wear at parks and beaches without worrying that they would get ruined. I got these at Ross for $20!
The skyline, it's crazy because even though it was cloudy and ready to storm the sun was still poking it's way through. Very typical of South Florida weather.
We saw this guy washed up on shore, it's a jellyfish but without the tentacles. I wasn't sure if it's only the tentacles that are poisonous so I didn't touch it.
I also found a toothbrush washed up onshore.
The wind made it difficult for the birds to fly so a lot of them were lined up and waiting to go.

I believe that fellow is in fact a man-o-war and not a jellyfish. When I was just a lad, I would comb the beach with a sharpened stick and pop them as I walked. If they are fresh, you get a really good "pop" noise. It wasn't until I was much older that I realised I was in fact murdering them. Still, that was some "pop" noise!
I don't remember but I think MacArthur park is the one my old coworkers volunteered at. If it is, then I went that summer on a night sea turtle walk and watched a sea turtle dig it's nest to lay eggs.
Also I know my dad picks those manowars up all the time, i just can't remember which part he touches. the smooth part, i think.
that's funny though b/c my parents just took our cousins up to west palm beach on sunday. i don't know what they did though. i think mizner park.
Natan said it was a jellyfish but I was suspicious I guess I should have looked into a little before claiming it was a jellyfish on the internet. There were no good sticks around so we could not do any poking even if we wanted to. MacArthur park does have turtle walks, I want to do one, they also have kayak tours that I want to do.
