Cape Cod -- 11 Things to Do to Bring Out the Kid in You

Remember all the simple fun you had as a kid when you visited the seashore, lake shore, or river shore? Well, here are 11 things you can do to bring back the kid in you, while visiting the Cape Cod National Seashore beaches. They are:

1. Go beach combing to collect shells, stones and even sea glass.

2. Climb a lighthouse -- Highland Light has some great views!

3. Play in the water, ride a wave, go body surfing -- lessons are available for all who want to be the great Kahuna.

4. Eat a cranberry (home grown in bread, pancakes, or jam), and try a wild beach plum. (We serve it as our jam for toast.

5. Hold a hermit crab.

6. Take a boat ride -- canoe, kayak, whale watching boat, deep sea fishing boat out of Rock Harbor, seal watching, or sail boat ride.

7. Create a Sand Sculpture and take a picture and send it home for all to see.

8. Catch a fish and eat a clam -- fish from shore, from a boat, in a pond, or in the sea. If you don't catch anything go to a great clam shack where clams, oysters and fish and chips abound.

9. Hike a quiet a woods -- enjoy 14 miles of self guided nature trails, listen to nature, and get energized with a brisk walk or a lazy stroll.

10 Enjoy a Campfire at the Beach -- every Monday and Wednesday at Nauset Light Beach at 7:30 during the month of July and 7:00 pm in August.

11. Book a room at the Whalewalk Inn and Spa -- start the day with an awesome breakfast, spend the day doing 1 through10, and partake of the many great restaurants for dinner. Then begins Cape night life -- an evening at the theatre, go to the drive-in for a double feature under the stars, live music and comedy at the Cape Cod Melody tent, or relax in your room with a brandy and a good book.

See you on Cape Cod!
