We took a lovely weekend trip to Seabrook in Pacific Beach, WA. It was a 2 1/2 hour drive and a lovely retreat for 5 families and their kids. We rented two houses side by side and had a lovely time hanging out with friends during the weekend. The weather in late July was in the low 60's and raining, but that didn't stop us from having a good time.

The kids all thought their controller was the one that worked the racing game. We never did find out which kid had the only working controller!
