Although we were looking for crabs the size of my hand, we consistently found little ones about the size of a quarter instead. The kids were so excited as they scanned the sand to find them.
Sammy probably found the most... she was a natural!
At one point, we saw another family had found a crab so we circled around to take a look.  The girl was using her hands to block the crab from running away to try to contain him.  Obviously Sammy mistook her actions for swatting so Sammy stepped forward and SMASHED that little crab with her Maglite.  Oh my, did I feel terrible!  But it was just so stinking funny!  There was an awkward silence that followed my apologies and some stifled giggles from our group as we made our way down the beach away from the family.  Oops!
