Father, toddler and dog chasing the waves

The father, son and dog I showed yesterday were clearly enjoying their time at the beach.   Here is a classic scene of the family chasing the waves.  I like the way that the young father is communicating the exuberance of the occasion so that his toddler knows that this is a time for excitement and joy.

My guess is that after the morning on the beach, the child will be ready for a nice, long nap.  Maybe the father, also.

This week we have more photos of Julie's raft trip through the Grand Canyon on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.
