Life’s a beach: Canceled spring break plans isn’t stopping families from having fun

ATLANTA — This week many Georgia families were supposed to be at the beach or other out-of-town destinations for spring break.

But the sudden rise of coronavirus put a wrench in people’s plans.

While many are wallowing at home wishing they were somewhere else, some families are making the most of their situation and having fun.

One metro family is living the mindset: “If you can’t go to the beach, bring the beach to you.”

Alex Hurst posted on Instagram this weekend, “Supposed to be at the beach. Not happening so we made our own.”

The picture is of Alex and her husband Larry sitting in beach chairs in their backyard under an umbrella with sand under their feet. And right beside them is a mini pool.
