New England Summer, Part 8

On the last day of our trip in Cotuit we drove about 20 minutes to Sandwhich town where we enjoyed a sandy beach at the tip of a shallow inlet. The water was colder than at Loop beach, but the water was much shallower so that we felt a lot safer kicking back under the shade while the kids played a few feet away. We used household tools to make a sand castle; the kids pitched in with gathering and tamping down the sand, and Josh sculpted our mound into a castle. We also played with our beach toys, and at the end of the visit Casey managed to get her diaper off for a last dip in the water.
