Days 7-14

Well it seems that I lost track of the days while on vacation. I guess that's a sign of a good vacation. Below are a few random pictures from those remaining days. There are few. As time went by we got so lazy we forget to take pictures.

A lazy morning (though they were all lazy mornings):


Newcomb Hollow Beach Olympics

Day 3

While on my run this morning (actually it was yesterday morning), I snapped a picture of Uncle Tim's Bridge:

Day 2

Ice cream on the beach from the ice cream truck,



and sunset at the harbor:


In other vacation related news, we are creating a list of "new foods" for JJ to try while on vacation since his current diet consists of chicken nuggets, hot dogs and pizza. Oh, and ice cream LOTS of ice cream. On the list so far: grilled cheese (he's crazy I know); strawberry ice cream - not a new food, but a new flavor. In an effort to make this exercise fun we let him throw in a few "junk" items; an egg, yes that's right my sons never had an egg. And its not because we haven't offered it, about a million times.

Yesterday he had the grilled cheese and strawberry ice cream. He liked them both. Of course he ate all of the ice cream, and about three bits of the grilled cheese. I think he might be out smarting us on this one. UPDATE: Tonight he had grilled cheese and bacon! He ate the whole thing. There is hope for him yet. You know what they say, "Bacon makes it better baby!"

Vacation - Day 1

I wanted to post a picture each day of our vacation. Unfortunately, I forgot to bring the cord to connect the camera to my computer. So the only picture I have to show so far is this:



It's a picture of the bay at Wellfleet Harbor. It technically was our first day since it was taken the day we arrived. But that day hardly felt like a vacation with the all the packing, traveling, traffic and unpacking.

Yesterday, our REAL first day, we spent at the beach. There was not cloud in the sky. A PERFECT beach day!
