We were off to the Cape. The car was filled with gas, our tummies with a not so healthy but yummy breakfast, and the day ours.
Our first stop was at the campus of the Massachusetts Maritime Academy where my friend will be receiving her master’s degree. After a quick stop we then made our way to take the free tour of the Cape Cod Potato Chip Company. Although small I found it informative and important to see. Not to mention there was a gift shop and free samples.
We had some time to kill so drove around looking for a brewery we heard about but could not find. I wanted to ask a man with bullets on top of his car door locks for directions but was denied that opportunity. It made for a good laugh, but no brewery. We then headed to our cranberry bog tour but on our way it hit me. I had made the reservation for Saturday.
Big oops, and I felt rather silly. Instead we headed to the small town of Woods Hole and visited the free aquarium run by NOAA. The small aquarium had great displays, behind the scenes stuff, and a nice little pier to walk on. We then drove on a pretty back road to see the Nobska Lighthouse. Not too shabby to be that keeper.
We headed back to Buzzards Bay, had a snack at Flip Flops, and rested in the beautiful Inn. Thanks to Vanessa’s previous job as a mermaid we stayed in a great location and ate an amazing dinner. I met a new friend, saw a beautiful sunset, took a nice night walk, and watched my friend roll in the grass for the first time without the fear of extra PT or something.
