What time off and no fast motor cars going round and round!! Looks like a fun trip. You nailed some of those under the pier shots. Nice going.
Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

"A photographer is known by what he shows not by what he throws. The best photographers have the biggest trash cans." Quote from Nikon School sometime in the early 1970's.
I also like the 3rd one in your first set, the depth of the pier shown nicely, the lone kid making the image simpler but more effective. Light looked tough for you shooting towards the water. Good ones.
