At Hampton Beach they are having their annual Sand Castle competition this week. The day I was there the contestants where just starting to make their sand castles. This partial sand castle featuring a monkey was the only one that had a recognizable shape on that day. If you want to see some of the amazing entries from last year check out the official Hampton Beach Sand Castle Gallery.
