Boat Ride

As I have mentioned previously, I don't love boat rides. That being said, the idea of being on a boat in really deep water full of sea creatures without being able to see the bottom ... I am wrapping my mind around it.

Also? This guy LOVES the boat:

We headed out early in the morning to see the Charles W. Morgan set sail from New Bedford, MA on its way back to its home in Mystic, CT. My knowledge of the ship is nothing compared to Steve's, but it's a big, beautiful whaling ship that is on only its 38th voyage.

Here are a few pics I snapped in between trying not to think about all that lurks beneath the water:

After this boat ride, we all headed to the beach so that the girls could have swimming lessons. Then we stayed and played in the water before finally coming home.

I think Caroline was a bit tired.
