Cuttyhunk.

This past weekend Zan and I went out to the Elizabeth Islands, off of Cape Cod. I'd never even heard of these islands before this summer and neither had Zan. When we were in CC my mom asked Zan what they were and when he realized he didn't know he looked them up to find out. After doing some research we decided to take a trip out to the last island, called Cuttyhunk. It's very small and only has about 50 or so year-round residents. More people inhabit the island in the summers, mostly in July and August. Since it's the end of September the island was VERY quiet, but also very relaxing. It's one of the most serene places I've ever been. There is one market (open 10-12 and 3-5 daily), one souvenir shop, and one place to eat. That's it. Oh, and there are no cars... everyone drives around in golf carts. It's so awesome. We had a great time walking around the island (found a little one room school house!), exploring the beach front and enjoying the ocean view from our little cabin at Pete's Place. We ate at Bart's Cart for lunch both days and bought lobsters for dinner on Saturday night. YAY! It was a great weekend trip, the perfect way to end summer, and so easy to visit from Boston!
