Cape Cod Stay-cation


A couple of weeks ago, we went on "stay-cation". Instead of flying off to some far off destination, we opted to stay around and just drive southeast for a couple of hours to take that much-needed break. With the economy the way it is, we thought it wiser to stay close by.

We decided to get to know Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard a little better and do some island exploring. We were in the mood for slow island living this year rather than a tight city-hopping itinerary. This time, we planned to take it easy and let our fancy take us wherever it wants at that moment. So whether it was gorging on seafood, waiting for a perfect photo opportunity, whale-watching, beach-hopping and riding the moped around Martha's Vineyard, we took our time and did a whole lot of nothing with gusto like two silly little kids.

Of course, as with most vacations, it ended all too soon. Now, we're back at home and work, but with new memories to look back and smile upon. This is one vacation that we actually had time for some rest. It sure makes for a nice change.
