We barely looked away from the water the entire time we were there, hoping to see a fin!
Well, we looked away a little, but only because the rocky shore was so interesting, as well! It's a national park, so I couldn't take any home with me, alas, but I really wanted to! |
The kids weren't cold. I was! |
I didn't recognize it until it was pointed out to me, but this is the lighthouse on the bag of Cape Cod potato chips! |
We never did see any great white sharks, although we did see a couple of seal or sea lion heads out in the water, so sharks could have been hunting there! |
This one had to miss ballet class that day, so it's good that she got some dancing in:
Even though I was a little chilly, I actually fell asleep here for a while. |
At the visitor center up near Provincetown, we had to watch a documentary for the children's Junior Ranger badge. Um, it was the creepiest, most depressing documentary that I have ever seen at a national park!
There's a scene where the sailors are scooping stuff out of a whale's head, and another where they're hacking things off of a whale, and I'm not even sure if it's dead yet.
But don't worry, because those sailors all die in shipwrecks, anyway.
Shudder.
No shipwrecks, whales, or great white sharks to be found! |
...we know much, much, MUCH more than we maybe wanted to know about whaling.
