Trip Overview

When we were in Rhode Island for our granddaughter's college graduation, we tacked on a few days in Cape Cod and had two great tours: Rideaway Adventures took us through Eastham [too many fancy houses but lots of wildlife, including nesting osprey], and we also had a trip with Great Marsh tours in Nauset Marsh. The latter was especially lovely: osprey and other water fowl, time on the beach and in the water, and baby osprey.
