Family Adventure Day at Wellfleet Audubon Sanctuary


Photo-A-Day #3373

We took the kids to the Wellfleet Audubon Sanctuary today to hike and check out the area. It is part of our adventure Wednesdays where we are trying to do something fun once a week all Summer. We joined the Audubon Society for this very reason, to get out and explore places.

The Wellfleet Audubon Sanctuary was a very nice place to visit. There are tons of wide trails that go from the visitor center right out to the ocean. The trail that we chose was one where we were able to walk along a great boardwalk and there were Fiddler Crabs all over the place. They were so much fun for the kids. They were delighted to see all the crabs. The walk was pretty nice, too.

We also had the opportunity to visit with my grandparents. We went over to their house and caught a little bit of a nap before they got home. Then when they came home I helped fix some computer issues. Andrew had fun doing blocks with Grandpa and Grandpa was delighted to play with Andrew and he even got down on the floor to play with him.

We then went to Chatham Fish Pier to meet up with Aunt Cindy and Uncle Wayne. We watched the seals in the harbor and then had a great meal of a Fisherman’s Platter. It was a nice day on the Cape.
