Trip to Eastham

We left for Eastham on 8/17 in two cars, one with Andrew and the kids, the other with me, Mom, and Mol.  The second car stopped in Newport, RI, for the first lobster roll of the trip at Anthony’s Seafood.  It was delicious!

On Monday morning we went on the Cap’n Kids Fishing Adventure.  It was a reasonable 2 hour trip with fishing, pulling up a crab trap, and swabbing the deck.
