I'll let the pictures speak for themselves... we hit Atlantic Beach for a couple days -- and what's a vacation if we can't cram in some educational stuff??? So we did the Civil War-era Fort Macon (super cool, according to Vincent, probably because it had tons of cannons) and the Pine Knoll Shores Aquarium (also super cool, probably because of the sharks).
 |
| Dominic's first interaction with the water... seconds before a big wave came and soaked his shorts! Good introduction, Dad. |
 |
| At Fort Macon, where the upper terraces have no fences. It's a straight 20-foot fall to the ground. I've never gripped the kids so tight! |
We also had dinner at a restaurant off a pier and laughed along with the laughing gulls (do you know the difference between laughing gulls and herring gulls, anyone?) and watched pelicans fish. We played on the beach, of course, and determined that Dominic hates the water. He now cries at the sight of the bathtub. Nobody tell him the pool opens in a month!

| Just us and the cannonballs at Fort Macon. |

| My boys sharing a smoothie |
 |
| The wave is coming, Dad! Hurry up with the ponytail. |
