Cape Cod 2011 6-28-11

Yesterday my family and I arrived in Cape Cod! We left our house for the multi-hour trip in the cramped car around noon. The car was sooo stuffed! We camp in tents, and we bring our own food and stuff, so basically we put items everywhere there was space. Watermelons behind your seat, towels and pillows in between my brother and I, shoes, buckets and backpacks in your lap, and occasionally something falling on your head like a lacrosse stick. It wasn't as bad as it sounds, though. We stopped for a late lunch/snack, to look at a car that my dad wanted to buy and to rent wetsuits and buy surfboard wax for my brother. In that order. Well, we got here and it was all happy because we've come to this campground once a year for such a long time. No seriously, like since before I was born. We pitched the two tents, set up the kitchen area, made our tents a bit more comfortable, and other things like that. Then my brother biked to the nearby beach and my mom and I followed shortly after that on our bikes with PB&Js for dinner. My dad didn't come because he was fast asleep. Also, he was a tiny bit mad at us because we didn't like the color of the car we looked at. It was white! Blindingly white. Actually, the color was called Candy White. So we had sandwiches on the beach and I caught some sand fleas after that. We biked back and eventually went to sleep. It's annoying, because I don't have a clock, so this morning I woke up really early, and the sun was starting to rise a tiny bit, so I figured it could be anytime between 5:00 and 6:30. I read, drew and biked around the campsite a bit, and now here I am at the computer, blogging. I expect that later in the day we might swim if it doesn't rain, and we probably will see our friends, who are staying at a different campground.
