I am 28 years old and yet I still go on vacation every year with my father (and his wife and her two children and their children and their spouses and my sisters and their spouses and their children and my own husband...you get the picture). Every year we pack up several vehicles with everything we'd possibly need for a week at the beach. We always end up forgetting a ton of stuff and always go to the store for that ever important beach toy or sun block. It's a huge hassle. But, I go year after year because I LOVE THE OCEAN! (I love my family too.) Do you have a love of the sea? Can you smell that salty air? Do you love the feeling of sand running between your toes? Does the wind on the coast make you feel alive? Here's a list of books for all you ocean lovers out there. Maybe they'll tide you over until you get to row yoursel out to sea! (Get it? Tide? Oh, I'm so bad). Ahoy there Matey! Till next time! -Suzanne
