The Washington/Oregon coast isn't known for "laying out", the water is like ice and you pretty much bundle up and hang out by the fire. Even though it was about 60 degrees, the kids had a blast, they played so hard that they didn't even make it to see the entire fireworks show. They all crashed out in the car.
Long Beach Washington is the longest beach that you can drive your car on and you can park by your fire area, which was perfect for Ruby, who hated the sand and pretty much stayed in the back of the Tahoe the whole time!
She was scared to death of the fireworks too, fire works are legal here in Washington, so the coast was packed with crazy people lighting off fireworks all day. When it gets dark it is pretty cool to look down the beach and see nothing but fireworks going off.
The kids were so excited to camp and sleep in a tent, but since they all crashed out in the car, we carried them into the tent and they didn't even know they were sleeping in a tent until they woke up! LOL.
