The B's on Tour - "The East Coast is Toast" Tour - vacation 2004

First Stop: The Land of Sand


The B's spent 16 glorious days on the road. We started our vacation with a week on Cape Cod (aka from now on in our home as The Land of Sand,) staying in Wellfleet. Our "Vacation Village" was off of Rte. 6A and had an inground pool (not that you need one on the cape - since there are only about 3 gazillion beaches!). Our cottage was comfortable and well equipped.

On our first full day, we visited four beaches. Wellfleet beach was probably my favorite, because the tide left nice sandbars, some pools for exploring, and the water seemed very warm, especially compared to other beaches on the bay side.

Much to our suprise, we discovered a lovely little beach in Truro, where we watched the sun set. Our adventure started out on a two-way road, narrowed to a one-way with room to move over if anyone was coming in the opposite direction, and ended up barely clearing the brush on the sides of the road. We contemplated turning around, but figured we came this far and we were curious where we were going to end up. The road finally opened up to beautiful large sand dunes, and we had the beach and sunset all to ourselves.

Stay tuned for the day trip to Boston and Cambridge!
