Lighthouse day

Today we explored some more of Cape Cod. First we drove to the little town of Wellfleet, another quaint little village.

















Next, we went to the Nauset Lighthouse.


Nearby are the 3 Sisters lighthouses which were replaced by the Nauset Lighthouse. All of the lighthouses have been moved further inland because the shoreline is eroding 3 feet per year.
One of the 3 sisters sans light.

Going down?







We walked to the edge of the cliffs at Nauset Beach but it was too cold and windy to enjoy the beach although we did see some seals.

Next we went to the nearby Coast Guard station

Weather was cloudy and cool most of the morning, finally warmed into the 70's in the afternoon.
