The Pool, The Beach, The Park

I used to enjoy my summer holidays learning swimming or bicycle riding and also i used to which is very near to our hometown, there we used to go island , that has bought me a cool temple meant and good patience and good control in life

I don't know what just happened to my response. We will go the beach a little bit and the little guy will want to go to the park, but I work for myself and will still have to work most days but working for myself allows me to do some fun things with the kids as well. We have a long vacation and lots of parties to go to this year so summer will go by really fast.

working... but I do need to figure out what to do with my oldest, since the school's extended day program won't take her any more (aged out)...

Well I have this hammock, I got a few years back, hand made in the philipines, just had to pay the shipping, a brother of one of my friends makes them, she hooked me up, love that girl to pieces. Anyways, I take my Hammock to the beach, and gawk at all the girls in bikinis. Or I go for walks in the park, I have an interesting new plan for this summer though, its going to be good, I am going to make a discussion about it later today, look out for the one entitled, Fishing For People with Beans as Bait. -It'll be a gooder, for your business. I also enjoy going to the many lakes nearby, if you have ever looked at a Map of Canada, there are a couple of Huge lakes in Manitoba, I live about a 10 Minute drive right south of the western one, Lake Manitoba. Has a beach, that is a sand bar for Miles, can take your kids and not worry to much, last time we went, we was just cruising along playing with our son, not paying much attention to the time or anything really, just playing. And the sun started going down, must have took us 40 minutes to get back to the car...which was parked about a 30 second walk from the waters edge. My favorite thing to do though, is take naps in my hammock. Cheers.

Its another week before school ends but when it does, it will be more schooling to keep up with the demands of testing preparations for the following school year.

..well..since in my country it's only hot and humid all year around..we usually like to go to the park because it is windy and it is nice to stroll around the park sometimes..but it is also nice to go to the beach..if you like to sunbathing once in a while..but i think anywhere is ok because you have your love one with you..

dorannmwin I have thought aboutit and thought about it, I could take an acess bus to newport pier for five dollars and some cents for round trip a few times not often as mymoney is very tight. otherwise I will just mylot and go for some walks. and sun myself on the bench outside.we used to have some outing but our really good actitivity director is out with a brand new baby. the new one really sucks she thinks putting up pretty decorations is all there is to activities for us. I would like to go down to the beach and just watch the ocean and also go to charlies chili the best and oldest little cafe on the beach withthe best chili anyone ever made.

We bought a family membership to the community pool this year, so we'll be spending a lot of time there once it opens later this month. (School is not out for us yet, 23rd of June is when they're done). We also spend a lot of time at playgrounds and going for walks on the local canal trail. I still plan on hitting the gym everyday too, thankfully they have free child watch there, so that will pretty much consume our mornings.

Let's see. Our full summer hits when the parent education ends in a couple weeks, which means we will have one more "day" free. My daughter is starting kindergarten in September, so for now I'm concentrating on preparing her as much as I can as she is not in preschool. I just switched her to the next age level of classes at the YMCA (mostly dance and craft), so we'll continue to go there daily in the afternoons. If it doesn't interrupt my son's nap time, I might start him in a class. One morning we will be hitting up our local Borders bookstore as they have a wonderful storytime program for kids - she'll be meeting some friends there and get to go to the play area afterwards with them. Another morning will also be set to hit the rink as she she really enjoys skating (taking after mom?). We are trying to see if we can fit in our budget, this pseudo preschool time at this local indoor playground place . . . it's structured a bit and rather inexpensive, so we'll see. The other days I'm keeping open to different trips or playdates (and some errand time for me!). We have to keep our daughter's skin in mind as she has eczema, so hopefully we can hit the beach just before sundown - same with the parks. We have 2 great pools in our complex (plus at the Y), but chlorine is an issue for her skin - so I don't know if we can swim anytime soon. We're bummed because she loves swimming, so we'll see what we can do. Anyway, it looks like we have a packed schedule for the summer!!

hi hon, summer has officially ended in my part of the globe. We really had a boiling 2 months. The heat was terrible, in the tropics where I'm living we hit 38 celsius almost everyday for the last week of May. It was terrible, even now it's still so hot. I wasn't able to go anywhere at all this summer because it was hot. You'd be lazy to get out. I wanted to go to the beach, rent a place to stay by the beach for a week and just relax...but that did not happen. Good thing about living in th tropics is that you have sunshine almost all year round and you can go anytime to the beach.

Here we are almost at the end of summer, but when it was at the peak, me and my wife visited Hyderabad and spent 65 days there, last week we were in Bargarh in orissa where our daughter lives with her hubby and kids. Glad to know that you will be enjoying the summer. Thanks for sharing. Welcome always. Cheers. Prof

Wonderful,summer is my favourite season, I can go to the beach with my family. It is amazing swimming in the deep blue sea with my daughter. She love the sea and all the sea animals, in the water we can see crowds of fishes with zero distance. But all of above is just a planning. As so much work and business I really will hopefully to take a family trip to the beach this summer, I owe much things to my wife and my daughter and my parents. I hope it will be everyday!

Our summer is about to end and school time is about to start. But we spend our summer mostly in the pool and beach. Because my son joined in swimming class and its everyday class so we need to go there. Then we went also to beach to have fun because there is nothing that we could do, especially its too hot and power interruption is everyday as well. Better go to beach and have fun in the water.

So here in my country the last school day is culminated with a matinee party in a nightclub. it starts like 1 o'clock in the evening. Here it's alwas sunny the most of the people here goes to the beach and the children goes in a group that travels around the country and or do nice stuff

I babysit my granddaughters and have to take them to work with me most days, in the summer we go up to the park as much as possible, and they play and go under the sprinklers. We have many other things planned for summer as well.

Well we are fortunate to live 5 minutes from the beach, so we can spend our days there if we wish. I also have an annual pass for my son 13 to the water parks in Queensland. So he can go all day to the slides and swim and I sit on the deck chairs and read and swim, so we both have a good healthy time.

I am so sorry for you Dorannmwin! They're home for the summer. Im getting knots in my tummy already. Im just kidding. It's just hard to plan activities when you work so much. I worked 55 hours this week. I love the beach! I would spend my life there is I could. My wish has always been to live right on the beach year round. I hope you and your children have a great summer. Just a little information. Check your local library. Usually if you have a library card you get free passes to museums and zoos. We are going to the Zoo and the Aquarium. The zoo is free for 2 adults and up to 4 children. The Aquarium is usually about twenty bucks a person, 15 for kids. WIth the library card its only 5 bucks a person. I am so excited myself. Plus I just put my car on the road. It will be fully insured and registered by tomorrow. Then I have to fix the tire. I will be able to drive to alot of place. dl

the beach. when i was in florida, i bought an RV in case i had to live in it after my house sold. i was at my daughters and we went to the beach one weekend in it. it was the most fun i had there ever, it was the only time i got any use out of it. my SIL started borrowing it so much that i figured he was wearing it down. so i sold it. i lost 11 thousand bucks on that. no wonder im broke but id say the beach was great

me i love spending my summer doing adventures like going on road trips or swimming in beaches with my friends and everything that i think would be fun. but unfortunately our summer here ends this Sunday and classes starts on June 7 and i haven't done anything i loved doing in summer :(
