But you need not take my word for it.  Instead, let Regina show you.

[![](https://blog.campchampions.com/hs-fs/file-408256078-jpg/blog-files/20111217-210123-300x200.jpg?width=300&height=200&name=20111217-210123-300x200.jpg "20111217-210123.jpg")](http://files.campchampions.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/20111217-210123.jpg) We have ridden planes (jet and prop) cabs, cars, vans, busses, ferries, tuk-tuks, rafts, trains, trams, subways, and walked.  But I never thought we would go on the beach equivalent of a hayride. After almost constant activity, we spent the day doing - well - nothing.  I say nothing.  We did play in the sand, recreating the Buddhist Stupa we saw in Nepal.  Here is the completed work.

We need a healing and relaxing day.  This is that day.  I hope to report more soon. Steve Sir PS It is worth noting that the Baskins have divergent views on our carved companion.  Susie and the girls love her.  I like her because Susie likes her.  I am not sure Wiley is aware of her.  Liam's relationship is the most interesting.  He has insisted on carrying the awkward 20 pound chunk of wood everywhere (except through security - see earlier story), yet he professes a rigorous dislike for Regina.  I think it is really love . . .Each of them, however, have declared they want her in their inheritance.  My response?  Stop talking about your inheritance!
