Cadillac Summit drive and Ocean shore hike

Drove up Cadillac Mountain, one of those curvy mountain roads with pull outs for scenic views and some butt clenching turns. It's the highest point on the eastern seaboard, great views of nearby islands and the ocean. Ocean shore hike was our longest yet, 2 miles each way. It was mostly flat and easy, with a lot of places where you can leave the main path to hike over/around rocks to get closer to the ocean. Some really cool views, some also butt clenching if you got close enough to the edge of the cliffs. We saw some crazy people climbing cliffs, including a 10 year old girl. We got right up close to the waves crashing on the rocks. We also stopped by Thunder Hole, where the water rushing in and out of a cave makes a roaring (thunder-like) sound. The end of the hike is at Sand Beach, named this because it is the only sandy beach in the park. The water here is really cold. The best part of this beach is watching the people's reactions when they go into the water, especially the little kids. Nothing like seeing a toddler running in terror from the water for amusement.
