Cape Cod Trip





A little while back Ashley and I got a chance to go stay down on Cape Cod. We went down on a Thursday night and stayed in the town of Brewster. We spent Friday down in Falmouth/Woods Hole and visited the aquarium where our good friend Keith Love was interning for part of the summer. We then took an evening ferry over to Martha's Vineyard and explored the towns of Vineyard Haven and Oaks Bluff. Lots of cool shops and restaurants. Saturday we went to the beach in the morning and then rented a sail boat for the afternoon. It had been a while since I had done any sailing so needless to say the first half an hour on our BeetleCat were a little scary. Once I got the hang of it we were cruising but a stiff wind and choppy water made for a stressful outing. We spent our Sunday closer to the tip of the cape in a town called Wellfleet. I rented a surf board and surfed most of the day while enjoying the beach and the great dunes on the Atlantic coast. A great weekend and we got to pretty much see it all.
