Grand Isle

We went to Grand Isle with a group of friends and we all had a blast.  There was lots of crabbing, attempts to fish, running around in the beach, playing on the pier, eating and drinking (by the adults).   There were 8 kids ranging age from 4 to 14.  The 14 year old mainly hung out with the adults, so the other 7 had free range of the camp, pier, etc. 
 
We were able to catch crabs in the traps and in nets in the surf.  Unless you had a boat, there were no fish to be caught, but there was no lack of trying. 
 
The pictures are in random order.

The plan is to do this again next summer, but probably not mid-June.  We'll have to do some research.  The weather was pretty breezy, downright windy much of the time, and the water was very choppy.  Better luck next year.
