St. Clement Island

Today we went to St. Clement Island. On March 25, 1634, the first English settlers under the Baltimore proprietorship sailed to St. Clement's Island on the Ark and the Dove. The 40 acre park contains a memorial cross dedicated to the memory of the first Marylanders.



The kids had mixed reactions to spending a day on the island.



They loved the boat ride to the Island!



They did not like the walk from the dock to the lighthouse.

Recreation Reptiles

Last night we went to get Rita's Water-ice. In the parking lot they had a Reptile activity going on. The kids had a great time and forgot all about their desserts. The kids loved playing with/ feeding the turtles. The boys were even brave enough to handle the snakes. Jamie stayed back and just took pictures. Jamie ended up being the "bad guy" by pulling the kids away from the event.
