On this lovely Sunday, we went and visited our friends, Stina & Tommi. \u00a0(Yes, this is the same Stina that Anna and I went to watch sing a few night earlier<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Afterwards, we decided to try the ‘other’ beach<\/a> in our town, and the kids had fun splashing around for a bit, while Finnur went grocery shopping. (23 images total)<\/p>\n

Exasperated mom decides to play along and pose for a photo before reclaiming phone.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"This<\/a>

\"This<\/a>

This beach had a line with buyos marking the shallow kid-safe water.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"This<\/a>

This water is fresh, not salty!<\/p><\/div>\n
