***States travelled through: still in Massachusettes...
(This entry is for both yesterday, Saturday 24th July and today, Sunday 25th...)
...so we have had a weekend of doing virtually nothing... we took ourselves off for a drive yesterday after breakfast, firstly to the mall... and then off to Hyannis town...
We parked up outside a scrapbooking shop... which I have been trying to avoid... as I cannot 'only' spend, a few dollars - the bill always amounts to hundreds of dollars...
...anyway - I have slowly been developing ideas for our albums... and when we were in the shop we found little number plates with the state names... we just had to get them... unfortunately they did not have Maine or New York... but we ended up with 17!!! I can't believe that in our travels we have touched on 19 states... some of them were just very briefly travelled through on the interstate, but we have a total of 19!!! Wow!!!
We then went off for a bit of a drive... before making our way back to the hotel - where we actually had afternoon siestas!!! The longer we spend doing nothing - the more tired we seem to be!!! I think that all we have done in the past 12 weeks is finally catching up with us!!! Neither of us can actually believe that 12 weeks ago tonight we were staying at Janice and Marina's, getting ready to fly off to Boston!!!
...this morning, Sunday... we went off for a bit more exploring of 'the Cape' - and headed down to Falmouth... in England we pronounce it 'Fal-myth' - in America they pronounce it 'Foul -mouth'... another lovely little town/village...
it's been really hot and muggy... and this afternoon we simply spent relaxing at the pool (both of us in the shade - would you believe) and reading... this evening we were off to the harbour at Hyannis, and we had a lovely seafood supper at 'Spankie's Clam Shack'...
We have discovered that on our flight back home there is no weight limit on your hand luggage... which is really interesting... so we have had to move some bits and pieces around... and Jay's hand luggage, is now filled with all sorts... we don't even want to consider how much it weighs... the condition that they put on your hand luggage is that you are able to lift it into the overhead compartment 'unaided'!!! So she is now bench pressing her hand luggage case!!!
We noted something interesting on our 'blog comments' as well... there is a comment added from a certain car rental company, after we moaned and complained on the blog... which is fascinating as they were never given the blog address - but must somehow have their name tagged on blogs!!! Mmm... very 'big brother-ish'!!!
So - tomorrow is our last day... we are planning on going to Martha's Vineyard... a two hour ferry trip from Hyannis harbour... and then we will be on our way home!!!
:-))) keep enjoying the moment lovely ladies :-) anyway - THE BEST IS YET TO COME! ;-))

Can't believe that you're almost back - it's gone so quickly. I've so enjoyed reading the blog - I'll really miss it, but am looking forward to seeing all the photos and scrapbooks. See you soon - Helen x
ReplyDeleteHey girls!
ReplyDeleteJust amazing the amount of travelling you managed to fit into this trip.
Think you might be on info & emo overload at the moment =)
I can actually see Jay doing bench-presses & curls with that bag.
Th final chapter to this blog will indeed be sad & times shared will be missed.
