A Day at the Beach

Dave is now working on weekends again for skydiving season, so we've had to move our "weekends" to a day during the week. This week, that day was Wednesday and it was fantastic. We had almost 80 degree weather and not a cloud in the sky. We headed to Cape Cod for the day to a Beach in the town Sandwich called "Crane Neck Beach" This was pre-season so they didn't charge us to park there. I'll say this, the beach was unbelievably rocky. see here:

But otherwise, it was great. We practically had the beach to ourselves and it was quiet and lovely. The water was a bit cold (think 41 degrees) so we didn't swim. We brought a volleyball and smashball, but couldn't play because it was way too rocky. But we laid out in the sun. ate a nice lunch on the beach blanket and then went hiking in the dunes with our flip flops on. We ended the day driving across to the "oceanside" part of the cape since we ended up on the "bayside" mostly just to check it out. It was a little too windy there for our taste so we saw it, we got back into the car and we went to go get ourselves a seafood cinco de Mayo dinner at a pub nearby. What a great day... can't wait for more adventures!
