Blacker Family Visit - Day 6

Today we searched for light houses. We drove to Rhode Island so that my family could see the Atlantic Ocean. We went to a beach with 2 light houses but my mom's back was hurting her so we couldn't walk to 15 min in sand to where the lighthouses were. We went back to Connecticut and went to the Lighthouse Museum. It was really cool to see pictures of all the lighthouses in the Long Island Sound (that's where all the sharks are.) I thought it was awesome to walk up into the top of the lighthouse. It was mine and my whole families first time inside a light house. It was blazing hot up in the actual light part. All glass and a sunny day makes it really warm. After we saw the lighthouse we went to Mystic to eat some sea food. Me and my sisters don't like sea food so we had chicken strips. But my Dad, Mom, and Kent really liked their sea food.The stairs to the top of the lighthouse were really steep.Oliver couldn't go all the way to the top because there was a ladder and he is too small to climb ladders.View from the top of the Lighthouse.Family Picture in front of the Lighthouse.Family picture at the Long Island Sound.All the Blacker children in the Atlantic Ocean.Oliver with his toesies in the Atlantic Ocean.Family Picture in the Atlantic Ocean.Katie eating chicken strips.Mom and Dad eating their seafood.
