US open Sand Castle Competition - Imperial Beach, CA

Sunday we went to Imperial Beach San Castle Competition. I believe it was the 38th year of this annual event and it was a really fun time. We saw on the news that the Discovery Chanel was there filming a special on the competition and they were filming it in 3-D, the first television special to be filmed in this way. We got to see the camera team while we were there and I am pretty sure that the camera they were using is worth more than my car, it was incredible! I guess I should have taken a picture of it..

I herd rumors that sometimes they rig the sandcastles to explode at the end of the day, but not this year (bummer)
