We made it home, and I am happy to report our trip back went smoother than the flight up. We gave ourselves plenty of time…enough time to enjoy Legal Seafood’s Crab Bisque at the airport…only to find out, it is seasonal: ( So, everything but the Bisque worked out. We had 3 seats together and Lucy slept for the last two hours. It was a busy vacation for us we had a wedding, a graduation, a cookout, and a memorial service to attend all in the first 3 days!We were able to slow down a bit and enjoy the last 4 days hanging out at the many beaches Cape Cod has to offer. I know of a couple nice, slightly off the beaten trail beaches, if you are ever headed to the Cape e-mail me and I will share some secrets: ) And as promised here are some details on our cottage rental. The first 5 pictures are of the cottage we rented and the little village it is in. As you can see it is a cottage….about 400 sq. ft with a bathroom smaller than some closets.In fact if you have not been to Europe, Asia or New England it is possible you have no idea what I am talking about but trust me it’s small. The good points are it is clean, extremely affordable ($400-$500 per week depending on when), it has a gas oven and stove and is centrally located between Boston and Cape Cod. The trickier aspects are the fact that it is BYOB (bring your own bedding) Another crazy New England phenomena, a lot of people who stay are coming down from Boston for a vacation so it’s easy for them to bring bedding and towels. We are fortunate to have family near by because I was unaware of the BYOB policy. If you are interested in renting the place just contact Freeflyingmom…my mom…I’m sure she’d be happy to help with the linens: ) The pictures below are of beaches within a short driving distance from where we stayed. As you can see, they’re beautiful, not crowded, and the star fish were in abundance this week. You can see Lucy below helping one back to the ocean. If you have any questions about the area or renting here just send me an e-mail, I’m happy to pass the information along!

Welcome back!
Wow. You had lots of family stuff to attend to. Glad you found some time to relax. The Boston area is such a beautiful part of the country (living in a desert makes me really excited about green trees and water) !
As soon as I saw the first pictures at the top, I said to myself, this either has to be Martha's Vinyard, or Cap cod. I have a dear friend who lives on Martha's Vinyard, and a few years ago I went and spent a week with her, and your pictures here remind me so much of the fun I had. Love your pics*! _Ashley ~
Looks beautiful! And what a great price.
What a beautiful place. I miss the East coast so much!
Other than a whirlwind first 3 days (!!!!) it sounds like a lovely, happy time. Thanks for sharing the pics!
Yay! Glad that you guys had a good vacation, although busy! It seems that Lucy had a lot of fun exploring !!
Yay! Welcome back. Looks like you guys had a relaxing and wonderful time. I have yet to go to the Cape Cod area, on my list though! This gives me all the more reason…
Looks great!
