We went in a group for a fun day out around 9:30 AM, and even though it was pretty cloudy, it was actually surprisingly warm out. Honestly, it was better than getting roasted by the sun all day. As soon as we got settled, we started playing volleyball as the others were still on the way. It started out pretty casual, just a quick game to pass time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bWhen we weren&#8217;t on the court, most of us were in the water. The waves were decent, and since the air wasn&#8217;t cold, we spent a ton of time just swimming around and hanging out by the pier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200bThe coolest part of the day was definitely the otter. We were just hanging out when someone spotted a sea otter floating right near us. It was just doing its thing, and it stayed around long enough for everyone to get a good look. It\u2019s not every day you get a nature documentary moment right in the middle of a scout trip. It was a completely different experience from our usual Scouting trips, but exciting and memorable all the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>&#8211; Nandana Nambiar, 16, Life Scout<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/photos.google.com\/share\/AF1QipOmnMUBxfYkxVZIwCW9ryH76DdhzSqzhSPMy7QYa2FyyYDpS4FNS3gb3DtThV3OBA?key=S0hIdEFoZ2lPRlRQc2ZzU2lHZzVOVDhtRU9KWnNn\"><strong>Photos<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Troop 260 headed out to Capitola Beach on August 23, 2025.
