We were able to enjoy some time at the beach today. Flat Ryan was excited to see the waves. He wanted to surf but I explained that he did not pack a wet suit. He settled for some fun in the sand. We also stopped by Nathan's first grade class to say hello. Some of the students have read the Flat Stanley book so they knew immediately who Flat Ryan was. The other kids enjoyed learning about this adventure. The kids looked on the map so Flat Ryan could show them where he is from. It was a busy day meeting everyone and lots of fun!!!
