August 2015 USA Plymouth, Boston and Cape Cod

After our long drive Eleanor and Linda were happy to arrive home in Plymouth. This is a random selection to give a flavour of our trip. Forgive us if you are not on; its no reflection of our affection!

 Good to see Samuel again after his week in Plymouth with various cousins and family. Lots of pictures are always taken on the banking in front of the house.
 Well you have to play basketball
 Fun at the beach club with Grandma
 Three of us visited the Ciampa - Connollys in Cape Cod. They spoiled us. Linda and Maria Elisa before the boat broke down! It added to the drama of the day and the kids swam back.
 Gen and Eleanor in Hyannis.
 About to go on our seal trip, with said seal below

 Joan invited Linda to the famous Paella Party this year and it was very good too.
 Grandpa, cousins Lee and Charlie cutting up wood with Samuel 
 Chiltonville Congregational Church and Linda had the privilege of singing in the ladies choir.

 A lot of time is spend pondering on the rocks. We love it.

 Now they are certainly cousins. Rosie made Eleanor a chocolate cake.
