Brrrrrr, I mean Beach

Any time you ask them, "what do you want to do today?" they always answer, "Go to the beach."  In fact, they chanted "To the beach, to the beach, to the beach" the entire hour to the sea.   It looks almost Mediterrainian.  It was like the Med...in November.  Ffffrrrreeeeeezzziiiinnnggg.
