Tokyo Grandchildren at the Beach House in Nags Head, NC

We flew Chikage and Riku from NYC to the airport in Norfolk, VA where we had left our car.  On the way to the beach house we stopped for a ride on the Monster Truck.

We visited Kitty Hawk Kites and the kids acquitted themselves well on the climbing wall.

Then, of course, ice cream was called for (Chikage - Cotton Candy flavor; Riku - Rocky Road in a chocolate chip cone).

Chikage and Riku set up a tent in the beach house bunk bed room and then Chikage did some artwork with Anna and a science experiment (summertime school homework) with Myron while Riku relaxed.

Maggie and Jeff flew in from Salt Lake City Utah and helped us have some beach fun.
