Where does the time go? 7 years old!

CC: BONUS DAY!!!

Bonus Day Highlights: Aidan rides on. Mulz, Betty, Shannon & Jim do a 12 mile ocean-side bike loop. After 20 minutes at horsefly beach we depart for warm bay water, kitesurfers, and "pretty rocks" (some of which Poppy threw) at Great Island beach. Alas...still no fish. Nonny & Poppy watch the girls so that the rest of us can enjoy Mac's Shack..mmmmmmm...Tuna Mango Martini! We end the week with a last round of margueritas and Scrabble. A perfect bonus day, a perfect week full of perfect weather! It will be hard to top this year at the Cape...but we will certainly try in 2009!

CC: Day 6

Day 6 Highlights: Surf boards are rented and attempted. Riptides and huge waves get the best of us. Jim's parents head home. We have onion ring failure and PORK. We meet "Betsy" and entertain the prospect of a "Bonus Day." Aidan melts down but we still make the Duck Harbor sunset before the sun does. A bubblebath (with a surprise visitor) washes away a long busy day for the girls. Another picture perfect day!

Someone's got to be first

Gosh, the waves look bigger from here

Is he going to come back?
