Boston/Cape Cod?

[corilannam]

So tomorrow I'm heading up Massachusetts-way, because chelseafrew's mom's best friend has a Cape Cod beach house she's not using, and when one's best friend's mom's best friend offers you a free beach house in Hyannis, you go.

We went a few years ago and did a bit of poking around in the area, but nothing intensive. Anyone have anything we definitely shouldn't miss?

If you can get to Dennisport, I recommend the restaurant Clancy's (A Tavern for Ladies and Gentlemen). They have fantastic beer-battered fish and chips and their long island iced teas are awesome, too!

Oooh, you just named two of my favorite things! May have to check that out! Thanks!

[reginagiraffe]

They come in *pint* glasses! (The LIIT, not the fish.) And they'll only let you have two. *g*

And I'm not going to be the one driving! Woo hoo! *g*

The Lobster Hutt (two t's, like Jabba)--I think it's in Truro, but I'm not going to swear to that. Yum.

Wood's Hole is nice.

There are whale-watching trips from Provincetown that are lots of fun. I'd say it's definitely worth spending a day in Provincetown anyway.

Have fun! I'm jealous--I haven't been to the Cape in about 10 years.

I definitely want to try to make it to Provincetown this time. I mean to go every time I'm up there, but haven't made it yet!

Oh! In P-town there is (or used to be) a restaurant in the old post office. The walls still have the boxes in them.

aHA!

Oh, if you've never been there, definitely go! It's a cute little artsy town with lots of nice gay guys. And the beaches south of it are kind of cool--lots of sand dunes. It has a whole different feel from that southern coast by Hyannis.

Have you gone to Nantucket? That's fun too.

[marzilla.livejournal.com]

Nope, never been to Nantucket, though I've heard some slanderous rhymes about a gentleman who lives there! *g*

OMG, STALK THE KENNEDY COMPOUND.

Ahem. Sorry about that. I'm reading a Kennedy family biography right now, and I got a little carried away for a second. ;p

No real suggestions for you, though. Have fun! :)

LOL! You know, I had a big obsession with the Kennedys when I was in high school, so the one thing on my agenda the first time I went up there was to find the compound. Supposedly we're just down the beach from it, but damned if I can find it! I probably just have a kooky idea of what a compound is supposed to look like.

Mmm. Four Seas Ice Cream in Centerville.... Om-nom-nom.
