"Tea House"

I took the kids to the Dunbar Tea Room in Sandwich, MA, on Cape Cod, this past Tuesday, since Lizzy had off from school! We have been going for about 1o years now, and refer to it as the "Tea House". It is a small restaurant with a great menu that serves afternoon tea; tea, scones, sandwiches, desserts. It is delicious!! Lizzy and I, of course, love it. Frankie has been when he was younger, but I wasn't sure how he would sit through it. So I brought some new Curious George coloring sheets, stickers and big crayons. He was entertained while we waited for our food to arrive. Lizzy and I had tea, served in mini tea pots with a cloth warmer, and a strainer to put on top of your cup while you pour. She got the afternoon tea; scones with jam and cream, finger sandwiches and small desserts. I got the Cumberland crumpet melt, a crumpet with chicken salad, cranberries and melted cheese. : ) Frankie ate a bit of scone and some fruit and yogurt. It was a great lunch and Frankie did well.
We then drove to a boardwalk that goes out to the ocean. We walked on it to see a great view of the beach and ocean. It was a great day, we all had so much fun!
