Wells - Take Two

A few weeks ago we went up to Wells, Maine for an extra long weekend.  It was much better than last year in that we didn't spend any time with Jack in the hospital.  Instead we spent a lot of time in pools, at the beach, playing arcade games, and eating ice cream.

 
First stop before checking into our hotel, the diner for lunch.
Jack made this pancake face all by himself and he was very proud of his creation.

On our first night we attended a Surfider event at a nearby nature reserve.  
We had a picnic, watched a movie about ocean pollution, 

and heard a band play, sometimes from unique vantage points.

We also saw a rainbow.

 We spent two days at the beach building castles and moats,

 and Jack learned how to boogie board, with mixed success.
Here is a brief video of him on a good run.

We went down to York one day and did some shopping.  
Jack tried his first salt water taffy and was pretty neutral about it.   

 "Do I have something on my face?"

 Ready to party slightly under water.


A good (and healthy) time was had by all.
