Cape Cod 2018 Part 2

January 4th, 2020 in Our Travels Worldwide

Two adventures we went on while at Cape Cod were to the tip tippiest point of the tail to see a lighthouse. We headed to Highland Lighthouse and all of us got to climb to the top but Reagan. So she stayed behind with Tyler and promised us that we would take her when she was older. Due to all the erosion they actually had to move the whole lighthouse inward. Crazy.

Of course we had to get seafood, New England has the best seafood and style of making the seafood in all the land!

Speaking of food when we flew into Massachusetts we spent one night in a hotel and did the most important thing there is to do there, eat cannolis and Italian food.

I got sidetracked by the food, the other adventure we took was to take Tyler to Martha’s Vineyard! This time we were on the hunt to find the sea monster Vanessa. On our last trip there I picked up a storybook called Vanessa and over the past year we have been reading it and knew we needed to find her on the next trip there. We spotted her after a REALLY long walk!

Sometimes doing special things should just be a one time thing because they aren’t as magical. The only thing that ended up being like that was riding the oldestĀ carousel and playing games in the old time arcade. That was not as magical the second time and should have just been done once. I have noticed that with some cool family experiences, that trying to do them again sometimes is a fail.

Walking around the gingerbread homes was just as cool the second time. It is my goal to spend a few days on the island and rent one of them to stay in.

Walking along the seashore, eating at their awesome delis and bakeries, and doing some shopping is the highlight of this place.

Most of all though, I love the ferry ride there. Why do I like ferry rides so much?! I have no idea; being on the water, the breeze, I LOVE being in crowds, being excited to go somewhere new. Maybe that is why.

Why don’t I live in New England? I’ll tell you why, Tyler doesn’t even want to. But it feels so special and different in my heart, always will. And I will visit it as much as I can, I already have an epic Summer 2021 trip planned to there.
