Nicolai bundles up as the temperatures drop with the approaching sunset.

We enjoyed dinner on the beach. Jeanine makes quick work of her lobster.

In total, I would say that at least a dozen crabs were captured. Two are pictured here in the holding bucket.

The boys spent hours hunting for crabs, fish, and eels. Oliver. a future marine biologist for sure, provided expert guidance.

After settling in at the Ward’s we set out for the beach at Menemsha where we stayed until the sunset.

After lunch we made a quick tour of the “ginger bread” houses of Oak Bluffs.

The first order of business was feeding the kids. Nicolai and Maya shared a pizza.

And finally, the lighthouse in East Chop.

This one was on Martha’s Vineyard in West Chop.

During our crossing, we encountered numerous lighthouses. This one was on the Cape Cod side.

We spent a long weekend on Martha’s Vineyard as guests of the Ward’s. The view off the tail of the ferry as we depart Wood’s Hole.

Tomorrow, the family heads off to Martha’s Vineyard for a four day vacation with friends. Once again I will try to post daily if I can gain access to the internet. If not, expect a bunch of photos next Monday.

On morning two, I went north up the coast to Perkins Cove. I found a great vantage point on a drawbridge from which I captured the entire fishing fleet.

Spotted this giant Blue Heron hunting for breakfast.
