Weekend in Westport

For Terry and his brother Mike's birthdays, we went to Westport for the weekend. Kind of camping but in quaint little cottages, with showers!!! We stayed at the Ocean Spray Motel. Mike and Terry stayed there when they were kids. It was nice to see a part of their history. The place was great. Not a Motel really but 9 little, 2 bedroom cottages with kitchens, bathrooms, tv's and heaters. Quite a change for us. When we go to the ocean we usually camp. It usually rains and is generally miserable. I always rally and never complain, but this trip was great. Family, hot showers and oh yeah, rain and wind!

 These are some of the only pictures I took. Maxwell is flying Uncle Mike's kite, all by himself.

We played in the sand, both days, but the wind and the rain was awful. It didn't bother Maxwell until he was beyond cold and having a meltdown. Being able to go back to our room for a hot shower was the best part of it all.

One of these times, when we go to the ocean, it won't rain on us. Maybe next time I will forget the sunscreen in an attempt to bring on the sun. I highly recommend checking them out if you are down in the area. They do not have a website but you can still find their information online. Worth every penny. They also have a play yard, a large fire pit, barbeques and an area to clean anything you catch or dig out at the ocean. The walk to the beach is only about 400 yards, but you can drive your car out also. We will definetly go back. We even scoped out another cottage we liked better.
