In reply to Message (69171) new year beach trip
By corsair - Mon 02/01/17 21:06:21 GMT She Who Must Be Obeyed and I rang in the new year at the beach this year. After taking in a bowl game, we headed back to our hotel, which was on the beach. Our corner of Florida was having a bit of a cold spell, so she was in medium-heeled boots and tights with a skirt over them. We had about an hour or so before we needed to start getting ready for an early dinner reservation, so still in our game attire, we walked across the sand and out to the water, which was at low tide. Getting that "golden hour" of sunset for photos, we started taking pictures with the ocean in the background.
After a few photos, a wave came in and just brushed her boots. She started to move inland but I told her that that was a great shot with the water at her feet and to wait there for the next wave. She knows that I always want to get "that perfect shot" and was willing to stand there as I timed more waves. Finally a much bigger wave came in so that she was 4 or 5 inches deep in the water. (Meanwhile I am taking pictures like crazy). With the water having soaked in past the zipper, her feet were wet and she was a very good sport and indulged me quite a few more photos. My own boots had gotten soaked in the process and we proceeded to take different selfies and silly shots while walking around in the waves. We even had a family take pictures of us together in the water and then took photos of them, all with waves gliding in around us. It was wonderful to have her standing shin deep in the water in her boots like it was the most natural thing to do.
We finally needed to head for dinner and this time walked straight back through the tide pool to the hotel. She changed her boots and socks, but didn't change her tights and we headed off to dinner. FWIW, the boots were all man-made materials. They were dried out and will be worn again.
(One other thing: to my surprise, right when we first walked down to the water, there was another lady near us who was walking her dog and getting her loafers soaked in the tide pool. Nice).
