While the U.S. was buried in snow and ice this President's Day weekend - we went to the beach. Although a few in our party ended up with food poisoning (and we had to throw away our Peter Pan peanut butter - not related) the beach was great. Some waves, a leatherback turtle that came in and layed eggs on the hotel property (and whose eggs and babies will survive as a result) and some mid-February sun. Great way to spend a long weekend.
