I like the flag...
Very smooth, but the mermaid is not so smooth. What is the difference?
Last time I was at a beach where the sand was good for that, my young neices and I did a three headed dragon lying flat on his belly. 20 years ago and no pic's though...
They liked it specially after it was done and they moved their towels over next to it, so when admirerers (sp?) came by and asked about it, they could say they made it!
Now I have another young set of neices and I hope next summer we can build our own creature at the beach.
So is your daughter young enough were she could proudly tell passers by about it?
