Vacation - Martha's Vineyard, Wednesday, September 23, 2009

This is the ferry we rode to Marth's Vineyard. The only way to get there is by boat or airplane.

Some people took their cars on the ferry.

Daddy made me sit with him but I was having more fun running around like a chicken with my head cut off.

Oh wow, another lighthouse!

And yet another lighthouse.

Yeah, we made it!!!!

Oh look, a beach.

Aren't boats supposed to be in the water?

Look, I got to drive the bus!!! Not really, but I did get to turn it on.

Guess what this is???? How many can one island have???

These are the famous clay cliffs.

Here's our clan.

How did those heads get on the totem pole? Do you think they would want to add a small little blonde head to it?

Betch'a can't guess where we visited.

It looked a lot like downtown Fairhope.

Pure serenity.

Do you see what I see, on the right hand side of this picture?

Yeah, Daddy didn't think about my stroller until it was too late.

Isn't this a pretty house? This was our favorite.

We liked this one, too.

But I want to take all of the flowers with me.

Ummmm, they smell good.

This house is spooky. It looks evil.

Either this is Pappa Bear's chair, or somebody has a really big bottom.

How neat.

Everything is picture perfect here on Martha's Vineyard.

Oppps, I think we just landed on Candy Land. Who would live in a pink heart house? Only some rich person on Matha's Vineyard, that's who. What an interesting place this is.

It's time for us to go now, see you tomorrow.

Vacation - Whale Watching, Tuesday, September 22, 2009

This is the boat we're going out on to see the whales. I hope the whale doesn't swallow us like he did Jonah.

Daddy said I'm the First mate. I don't know what that means.

I don't see anything yet.

The tall tower is a monument for the pilgrims.

Another Lighthouse......but where's the house?

I like this.

Momma said we're supposed to see the whales soon. I'm wondering when.

Oh, there they are!!!! There's two of them.

Oh my goodness!! Hey, come back.

That was cool. We saw a bunch of whales. Momma had a hard time getting pictures though so that's the best she got. Daddy took video, come over and you can see it.

Time for my milk and a break from the wind outside.

I wonder why my grandma's picture is not there.

I'm glad we didn't go out on that boat. I might have fallen over the side.

But why do we have to leave the boat? I was having fun.

I hope none of my friends see this one.

We're having a blast, wish you were here.

Vacation - Cape Cod Potatoe Chips, Monday, September 21, 2009

Ever wonder where Cranberries grow? They grow in bogs. That's a Cranberry Bog behind me and Momma. Looks kinda nasty to me. It has lots of mice in it too, we saw them. And the green stuff, it's green sludge, yum yum. I'll skip the Cranberry juice after seeing this.

Here's a cute doggie we met while at the Cranberry Bog. The doggies walk around the Cranberry Bog and do their business. No Cranberry Sauce for me this Thanksgiving!

Ever wonder where Cape Cod Potatoe Chips come from? They come from Cape Cod!!!!

We took a tour and watched the potatoe chips being made and a really nice man brought us a bag that had just been filled with freshly cooked chips. They were still warm!!!

This is a windmill. They have lot's of windmills here.

This is a true Lighthouse. Can you see the light above the roof? That's how they used to be built, in the house. This is one of the oldest on the Cape. I think that car is, too.

There's water and boats everywhere you look here.

This boat says it's a "Cod Fish" boat. Ever wonder where Cod Fish come from??? hahaha

Me and Momma are posing in front of the Nobska Lighthouse originally built (in the house) in 1823 and rebuilt (outside of the house) in 1876. I wonder why they changed it.

Behind me and Daddy is the Nantucket Sound.

Daddy taught me how to throw really far. We threw 100 rocks into the Sound. It was really fun.

"Watch this."

Yeah, it's more fun to climb over the rock than go around it. Don't you know, that's what boys do, we climb.

And the birds thought they could rest.

This place is so pretty but we have to go now. See you tomorrow. Bye, Bye.
