A mini vacation to "The Faraway Land"
A few days ago, Eric and I ended up in Nantucket, the little Island off the coast of Cape Cod, Massachussetts. Most of the summer residents had left the island, so it seemed deserted, which was fine with us! We arrived at our hotel - an adorable Cape Cod style building with pine shingles and a beachy, New England feel. That night we decided to go get some lobster at The Lobster Trap in town. We had seared scallops with Ginger, lobster, muscles and clams. yum! It was cozy inside the restaurant where we sat at the bar and enjoyed our seafood and drinks.
Later on, we checked out an old bar called the Club Car. The bar part of the restaurant is actually a train car that was part of the old Nantucket railroad. The town was quaint with cobblestone streets and street lamps glowing in the fog.
The next day, we spent the day in town, grabbed some lunch at the Atlantic Cafe and headed to the beach. Although it wasn't exactly beach weather, we enjoyed hanging out on the sand with a hot cup of coffee. It was a fun relaxing couple of days on the little island. Now, I'm off to Amsterdam and Portugal!
