Sunday ended up being a complete wash out! I felt like we were in a hurricane! We did what every other Cape goer did...went shopping! We hit up the Christmas Tree Shop, Cuffy's and then we went out to dinner.
The original weather forecast was not very good for the week, but Monday - Wednesday ended up being beautiful!!! We got up, had some pancakes and headed off to the beach on Monday. The kids had a blast playing in the sand and in the water. The beach we went to had a tidal pool, so the kids enjoyed playing in that, trying to catch fish and looking for shells. Monday night we ended up taking a drive to Wellfleet. Our family friends have a place down there and their son Rob was home from San Diego for a few days. I haven't seen Rob in 10 years - so that was a must! We were there for a little while, and then drove back to Chatham for some ice cream!
Tuesday was another day spent at the beach! We were there until about 3, came home and then Brian came for a visit. He brought the kids toys - they played for a bit, and then we went to dinner! I was able to get my fried clams :-)
Wednesday was our last day at the Cape. The weather was gorgeous! Mom and Steve went for a bike ride and David and I took the kids to see Chatham light house (as well as the sharks!) We could see all the seals bobbing in the water, but no shark sightings!
I'm home today - putting everything away and getting the kids back on schedule. Today will just be a lazy day. Tomorrow, the kids will be doing their 1st full day at school and I'm headed to the beach with my neighbor.
Overall this has been a GREAT vacation!
