Cape Cod

We had a wonderful week on Cape Cod. We lucked out in picking the week of the major heat wave in Boston....104 back at our house, but nice and breezy on the Cape :)

We rented a house in Orleans with 3 other familes (the same group we went skiing with last winter). 8 adults, 4 four year old, and 2 two year olds made for a lot of fun (and a lot of towels constantly drying on the porch!)





We cycled between 3 local beaches, and went to a different one every day - sometimes twice a day. Henry was loving the beach:











Henry's favorite beach activity was pulling Jake on the boogie board:





We all rented bikes one day to cruise the Cape Cod "Rail Trail". Henry was a huge fan of the "tag-along" bike:






Another day we went for a hike:






And then (of course) stopped for ice cream:




One night we took the big kids to the clam bake at the Chatham Bars Inn:





They got to sit at their own table, which they we very pleased by:





There was a giant lobster wandering about:




And after dinner the kids got to play on the beach:




It was a great vacation - thank you to our friends for sharing it with us!
