The first few days of our vacation were beautiful...and then the rain came. I swear it was raining sideways. But, we made the best of it. One day we drove the entire island. Here we are in Aquinnah...
Gay Head Cliffs..a must see on your trip to the Vineyard. JFK Jr.'s plane went down a few miles out from here...11 years ago
Squiby beach...check off the summer list. 
The Flying Horses..the oldest working carousel. Here is Hannah trying to catch the brass ring....And Griffy's first ride.
The kids...ok, and me..love going to the General Stores. Alleys' and the Katama general store. Old fashioned toys, candy, lobsta rolls..
We spent a small fortune at the Candy store in Edgartown...
who doesn't want Crab crap?
And it wouldn't be a vacation for me without a stop at the bookstore. 
And of course...ice cream. My sister and her husband run 3 ice cream shops there. There she is...scooping free ice cream for all of us. Thanks Jen.

LOVE the look on Will's face with that bag of candy. He reminds me so much of Micah. Must be a first-grade boy thing. Hope you found a good book or two.

What's the name of the ice cream shop? Mad Martha's? I grew up on the Cape and loved visiting the Vineyard and Nantucket - what a great family vacation!
