Seaweed Kings and Queens

Although it may not seem like it at first glance, I learned today that there is an art to providing a Seaweed Queen (that was me) with sufficient seaweed to survive on land. First, you have to run into the waves and search carefully in the water to find a good patch of seaweed. Then you quickly grab it and run to shore (all the while watching for the next swell of waves)...this can be done as a team or individually depending on the size of the seaweed. Can you tell it was a fun Labor Day afternoon? I should have taken a picture of their seaweed offering to the Seaweed Queen when they were done!
