Bridge Tunnel and Monster Truck

Today we went across a really really long bridge over Chesapeake Bay.

Then, all of a sudden it became a tunnel under the bay.

Then it became a bridge again, then a tunnel again, and then a bridge again! It was so big there was even a gift shop, restaurant and fishing pier on the bridge!

The reason the bridge had two tunnels was so that huge boats would be able to sail over the tunnels. Some of the boats are too big to sail under the bridge, so they have to sail over the tunnels.

Then we had to stop here

To buy a very special boy a present! The store was open this time. Just as we were driving out of the parking lot, the trailor truck came back bringing the monster truck home from another show.

When we got to North Carolina, we drove up the beach to see the wild horses here. The horses are really big here, not little like the ponies on Assateague, and they like to bite because they are wild. You aren't supposed to get near them. It was pretty dark when we drove down the beach though, so we didn't see the horses.

We drove the truck on the beach in Virginia too. My truck is beginning to think it is a dune buggy!

So far, we have been finding lots of presents for three very special kids!
