Virginia Beach day one half

We drove all of 80 miles this morning to Virginia Beach just East of Norfolk.  We set up shop and then headed for the beach just two miles away. There we found these amazing sand sculptures from a recent competition.

The sand sculptures were just incredible. These are three examples of what we saw.











This one took the blue ribbon for best solo..... single artist..... sculpture.








Abraham Lincoln is shown here with the mermaid. The sculptures were tall... some at about eight feet and incredibly detailed.
We're now home with our feet up deciding what we'll do for the next three days at the beach.
