The one bummer: we waited 3 weeks to go on our honeymoon so I could start my new job.
So in mid-June, we started our honeymoon-extravaganza with packing the car, stopping for gas and stocking up on the essentials:
Diet Pepsi for the Mister and Starbucks for me! And yes, those are wrappers to Hostess mini donuts and mini muffins... the breakfast of champions.
About 6 hours later, signs of hope started popping up and we were happy newly weds!
When we finally arrived at our honeymoon-home, we were won over by the charm of the Cape! Our cottage was cozy, with cedar shingles, cute interior and a windmill in the backyard.
We unpacked, went to dinner then rested up for our week of easy-breezy bliss!
Our first full day, we drove up to Providencetown for some whale watching. Neither one of us had ever been and we were probably much too excited for two, grown adults but it was our honeymoon! And that give you a get-out-of-corny-jail-free card for any and all actions that take place during said trip.
The next day we hit the beach and explored Hyannis, nothing crazy but totally fun.
Day three we were pulling out the big guns: Martha's Vineyard! I had been there before with my family(well, just Oaks Bluff since we didn't know there was more to see) but it was a first for the Mister.
We went to the ferry, got our tickets and headed to the Vineyard...
We walked around Oaks Bluff and ooh-and-ahh'ed over the famous gingerbread houses...
But we were kind of "over" Oaks Bluff and all the tourist. So we rented a jeep ...
(this is when we discovered the bubbly beats of Miley Cirus' "Party In The USA". Arms in the air and all)
and headed to Edgartown for some lunch.
And we spent the rest of the afternoon getting lost in the narrow, over-grown back roads of the island.
Yeah, I became a bit obsessed with sand dunes!
Up next: Stalking the Kennedy's, Nantucket and our last night as honeymooners.
