Tat day

Today is our last day on the Cape and it didn't start so great, there was light rain and an overcast sky. We set off to do our usual morning thing, upload the blog and get some breakfast. I usually upload my blog using the dunkin donuts guest wifi but today my blogger application crashed and I lost the entire blog post. We though we'd get breakfast first at The Pancake Man, which was pretty busy but the food was good, after which Sam wanted a day to go shopping for tat to take home. Welł I thought I'd done enough of the stuff I wanted to do so I thought, why not, I'll give her a day. So we went from shop to shop looking for something to take home for Sam, I just followed her around like a lost pup, thinking I could of waited in the car. Having said that, it was still pretty fun. 

We took a break halfway through the day and came back to the cottage. I rewrote my blog and had my ice cream from sundae school, which we bough the night before and kept in the freezer. I have to say, that's some of the best ice cream I have ever had. 

We headed back out, there was candy and pie on the list still to acquire. I was going along for the ride at this point but Sam pulled in at Monomoy wildlife refuge, or "The weather balloon station" for a sit and admiration of the view. 

Heading back we picked up a pie for Saturday night and sat outside on the deck for a while before going back to the sand bar for dinner. We sat outside in the sun and had our food. I was so stuffed and apparently we still have ice cream back at the cottage. 

Back at base, it was time to sit out and relax before we started to pack up for the trip home in the morning but not before one last sunset on the decking.

As the sun went down we started to stargaze again. We found Jupiter and Venus shinning bright for our last night and Saturn also made an appearance. Look out for pics of our little friends wishing us a good night for the last time on Cape cod. 

I have to say, my time at Cape cod has been fantastic. I have done things I have never done before, done things I have not done in a long time and seen things I never expected to see. I now see why Sam raves so much about it. It's such a beautiful location. The cottage is beautiful and you can really feel the woes of the world wash away from you when sat on the decking at sunset with a cold beer or glass of wine. To those who come here on a yearly basis, I see exactly why you do, I get it. For those that have never been, my blog doesn't even begin to describe how idilic this place is. I hope I get the opportunity to come again. 

Tides coming in. Sun's going down, time to sup that beer and recollect the most enjoyable time I have had. Don't forget to keep your eye on this blog for photos from my camera when we get back to Albany.
