The weather forecast predicted rain again on Tuesday, so we wanted to be sure to get out and do something in the early part of the day. Here is a hilarious picture of Zoe taken as we were waiting for Daddy and Silas to finish getting ready. I think she was trying to re-create the pose she struck when I took a picture of her in the restaurant yesterday.
Chuck's wife recommended the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History in Brewster, so that's where we headed.
We decided to hike down to the mudflats behind the museum in hopes of having a picnic on the beach. Little did we know what we were getting ourselves into...
We took the stroller so that we had an emergency toddler extraction device as we approached naptime. Unfortunately we weren't prepared for how rough the terrain would be.
We forgot our picnic blanket and there were no picnic tables in this remote spot, so we ate in the rough.
Thankfully we had juice boxes to help fortify us for the walk back. In total I think the hike was 2+ miles!

The museum had two exhibits that highlighted animals from the Cape area - the kids loved it!! They saw toads and snakes,
Seashells under magnifying glasses,
And honeybees!
And downstairs there was an aquarium,

It was really beautiful, though - walking through woods and meadows and marshes.
At last we hit the beach! Shoes came off and the stroller was parked before we hit the sand.

A very long nap was taken once we got home :) We ended the day by grilling in the rain - Chef Silas was very eager to help!
