Our first stop this morning was to the Zooquarium. It was part aquarium and more like a farm than zoo. We saw lots of fish and native water life...more frogs and turtles than I have ever seen in one place. Then we ventured outside to the petting zoo.
These poor sheep couldn't even see they needed a haircut badly.
We saw a nest with some baby robins. The little open mouths were so cute.
David thought this turkey was pretty cool until it started gobbling at him. We learned that this male turkey was making sure David didn't move in on his girl.
These goats knew just what to do when Aaron put the money in to get the food. He could barely get the food out without them knocking the machine over.
Allison liked these deer. She would sit and pet them and pick up corn that others had dropped to keep feeding them.
I loved to feed the Llamas, so much that I didnt' even get a picture of them. David just kept laughing at them saying they needed to go to the dentist or that they tickled when they ate out of your hand.
After going to the Cape Cod Creamery (the most fabulous peanut butter and Reese's ice cream EVER!) we went back to all go swimming. I finally got swim diapers for Bridget so we all jumped in. Bridget wasn't too happy, in fact screamed very loud and had a death grip on my arm. She sat out and was content watching, for awhile.
After changing and getting some dinner, we headed to watch the sunset over the Cape Cod Bay.
It was beautiful, but cooled off quickly. We weren't the most prepared and had NO jackets.
We went to Gray's Beach which has a very long board walk out amongst some marshes.
People were out canoeing and enjoying the sunset. The natives told us that most go out among the marsh to catch clams and crabs. They also told us if we had a chicken leg and a piece of string we could throw it over the side of the boardwalk and catch a crab. We'll have to try in next time.
It was a beautiful night.
