I awoke this morning, slowly, to the sound of a fan going 'round and 'round. Moments later, Dave staggers into my bedroom and loudly proclaims that he'd like to kill himself. What? Huh? Oh yeah, another night out and none of us got ass. What is this, February? Then the night came back to me, seeing how we only went to bed a few hours ago anyways. You see, in the summer time, we don't sleep, we just take short naps between working and drinking. I sit up in bed and survey the wreckage: my cousin Brion, groggy and on [View Full Entry]

As an overplanning nut, I had many more potential activites to do with my kids that we didn't have the time or budget to fit in. I guess I'll just have to plan another trip to Cape Cod to finish them! Here's a list of additional activities you might try with your children: 1. Cape Cod Baseball (www.capecodbaseball.org). There are free games all summer long at various locations around the Cape. If you think your kids are too young to sit through a whole ballgame (mine would be), you might give them a taste of Cape Cod baseball by having them [View Full Entry]

We start our adventure in the quaint town of Chatham. For those who aren't aware, Chatham is the richest town on the Cape, which is saying something. So, when in the richest town, where do you head to? Why, the fanciest establishment in the entire town, of course, the Chatham Bars Inn. Let's set the scene: It was Sunday and sunny, so usually we head to the outer beach in Orleans, after harrassing every girl in our phones, and getting responses from something like 3 of them. However, because the stupid Piping Plovers are nesting, my $180 beach sticker is [View Full Entry]

Well, if you've read this far, you must be wondering if our family of five was able to do all that for under $1500. The truth is, I came in slightly overbudget but I was pretty darn close. The grand total worked out to be: $1556.04. Friday's splurges on food and unplanned attractions put me $56 over budget. But I guess the most important part is, I don't feel like we skimped on anything. We had a great time and I hope I've inspired others to get out there with their kids and travel. For those of you who are interested [View Full Entry]

Well, we're in the car driving back to Buffalo as I type my last few entries. My husband hooked up the laptop to his cell phone so I could feed my internet obsession during the 8 1/2 hour ride home. This morning we checked out of our condo by 10am. I took parting pictures like I promised and posted them under "Accommodations." After check out we headed back to Plimoth Plantation. I think I mentioned earlier that you get a two day pass for the cost of admission. What I didn't realize last Saturday is the pass is supposed to be [View Full Entry]

Mayflower II

Day 7 was the last full day of our vacation before we start travelling home. I was determined to get to see the JFK Museum (on the inside today). Also, while looking through the Kids on the Cape travel magazine (found in local store foyers) I came across a coupon for the HyLine Harbor Sightseeing Cruise. Usually the cost of the cruise is $14/adults and $7/children. The coupon said kids ride free and $2 off adult admission. With three kids, I thought that was a great deal. So even though I hadn't originally planned on doing this excursion, I decided to [View Full Entry]

The local weather channels had been warning all week that we'd have severe thuderstorms Thursday. So I saved all of the indoor activities I wanted to do until today. I really wanted to window shop at Mashpee Commons a large outdoor mall with lots of interesting boutiques. I figured if it was raining too hard, I could just duck into another store. I also knew that my children would not want to participate in such an activity. Conveniently, the Cape Cod Children's Museum (www.capecodchildrensmuseum.org) is also located in Mashpee. So my husband dropped me off at the Commons and [View Full Entry]

Searching for shells

They say no visit to Cape Cod is complete without a visit to one of the islands; Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket. We chose to do Martha's Vineyard on this trip for several reasons: the ferry ride was shorter, there was more to do with young children, and the ferry tickets were cheaper. We left the condo around 7am this morning, drove into Falmouth and parked, then took a bus to the ferry terminal in Wood's Hole. We were a little early getting to the terminal, which is what I planned because I wanted to try out this great little bakery called [View Full Entry]

Martha

We have had fanstastic weather this week on Cape Cod. The last few days have been a regular heat wave. The family was all exhausted after the whale watching trip so we slept in on Day 4. I let the husband sleep until 10:30, after all it's his vacation too! When everyone was finally up, we walked across the street to Craigville Beach. The kids really enjoyed running in and out of the water and trying to build sandcastles. Craigville Beach is one of the nicer beaches on the Cape from what I've read on Tripadvisor.com, and I can see why. [View Full Entry]

Day three of our Cape Cod vacation was devoted to whale watching. I had researched the big 3 companies on the Cape; Portuguese Princess (www.princesswhalewatch.com) and Dolphin Fleet (www.whalewatch.com) out of Provincetown and Hyannis Whale Watcher out of Barnstable (www.whales.net). We decided to go with Portuguese Princess for several reasons. First, they didn't charge admission for my 4 year old. Secondly, they offered a family discount rate of $90 for two adults and two children. That made sailing with them about $50 cheaper than sailing with the Hyannis group. Fi [View Full Entry]
