Magic Kingdom

During the summer, the beach is a huge destination for most people. Hitting the beach is a great way to soak up some sunshine. When it gets too hot you can always cool down by going for a swim in the ocean. Another great activity for the beach is building sand castles. I have no skill when it comes to things like this though, but some people are really skilled. They can create huge detailed designs like the ones below:

I love the details and swirls on this one.


I love that this one has so many tiers and a forest!


This one even has lights!


Have you had a chance to make it to the beach lately? Do you have any skill when it comes to building sand castles? If you haven't been to the beach, I hope you have been able to get away somewhere else for a break this summer.

  6. I haven't been to the beach in a while & tried making anything. The feel of sand underneath my nails makes me cringe though lol ~ I'm worried about my nails haha.

It's my absolute fav thing about summer - being on the beach! and those sand castles LOOK AWESOME! I wish I could be as talented :P to tell you the truth, I still sometimes get the urge to go and buy those plastic sand castle making tools! I'm not sure what they are called :P

  10. I've always admired people who can build the most extravagant sand castles. I go for the drawing in the sand or good ol' turtle or cup holder for my tasty beverage!

  12. this is going to sound beyond crazy, but i haven't been to the beach this summer. i know, i live in los angeles and i never got the chance to go to the beach... must do something about that now. ;)
