Cape Cod with Friends!

In Cape Cod, we met up with the Mann & Mace families.  We enjoyed many adventures, including potlucks with friends, lighthouse tours, fishing and hiking, a trip to the Cape Cod National Seashore, a beach trip on a rainy day, Woods Hole Science Aquarium, Aptucxet Trading Post Museum Complex, Cape Cod Beer, Pilgrim Monument and Museum, a fancy Sunday brunch at Chatham Bars Inn, a trip to the movies and so much more.  The area is breathtaking and we made great memories with friends!!!  Here are some of favorite pictures of our time in Cape Cod.

I don't drink beer, but they also make the best root beer, which I tried and loved!  Delicious.

U.S Coast Guard





Pilgrim Monument 

The tower is 252 feet, 7.5 inches (77 meters) tall and rises 350 feet above sea level! The heart-healthy walk to the top on 116 steps and 60 ramps only takes about 10 minutes at a leisurely pace. The Pilgrim Monument is the tallest all-granite structure in the United States.

The Museum was very informative...
