Cape Cod

August 2008- My favorite vacation spot in the world is Cape Cod. The only place I can truly relax. We have been going to the Cape since I've been 3 years old. We go to Harwichport, MA. We stay at a timeshare that my parents bought 30 years ago. They originally bought 2 studio units....a unit for my parents to stay in and one for my brother and me. For the past few years my brother (Adam ) and sister in law (Nelly) go, as well as Scott, Matthew and I, so they rent another unit- a bigger one with an extra room since we have Matthew. It's a very simple place, but the location is amazing. It's on Main Street so you can walk everywhere- restaurants, shops and the beach. It also happens to be in the center of the Cape so it's a great location in general as far as getting to the other towns.

Some other great towns we go to while we are at the Cape are Chatham- (quaint town to go shopping), Orleans-( beaches), Dennis (bumper boats, trampolines and go carts for Matty), Provincetown ( shopping for the day), Hyannis (walk around town) Osterville, Yarmouth and Barnstable (shopping).

I can go on and on about the food- the greatest seafood ever........the foods i eat the most of while visiting are steamers and new england clam chowder.

Below are some pictures of our vacation to the Cape.
