Vacation Day 4 - April 28th

We woke up this morning tired and glad to be going back to separate rooms for the nest nights sleep.
We packed up the car and went exploring Newport again to a beautiful day of sun. Aquarium, beach, lighthouse, and a long drive to Chelsey's.

We went to the Aquarium first. Matt and I had been here for our Honeymoon, but I didn't remember it until we were about done. See the picture for the fun.

I love Arlee's facial expression in this picture.

Matt and his hats. This is when I remember being here before.

Me trying to touch the anemones with 1 finger. I don't like slimy feeling things.

Arlee had no problem with all 5 fingers.

After the aquarium, we got lunch and then went to a different lighthouse and the beach. Arlee and I were the first ones to take off our shoes, roll up our pants, and get into the cold water. Chelsey was soon in with us, but the boys preferred to be party poopers for this.

Me and Arlee first attempt to get in the ocean. It was cold! But so much fun!

Chelsey joined us with a sleeping Lydia

Matt and Abbie 

Right before we left the beach, Arlee got surprise by the tide, tried to run, but was off balance, and fell to her hands and knees. She got her clothes wet and her daddy's shoes who come to her rescue.

After the beach, we went back to the lighthouse and the tide pools. See the next post. (too many pictures)
