my niece at a beach in cape cod.
took the red-eye friday night / saturday morning back to boston. from there the whole entire family packed into two cars and made our way over to cape cod. my niece and nephew are so big now! and cuter than ever. we arrived at the ocean edge resort in brewsterMA a little after ten in the morning. while the rest of the fam did some recuperation time, i did my very first five-mile run! afterwards we had lunch then headed to provincetown for the afternoon, then dinnered at a restaurant called abba.
sunday, we did some more exploration of the cape, including chatham, where we had lunch, several beaches just north of the elbow, and wellfleet. i put my feet in the atlantic ocean for the first time in several years! we dinnered at mac's shack in wellfleet - massive massive amounts of seafood. as a family, we devoured three dozen wellfleet oysters, two dozen littleneck clams, four ordered 2lb lobsters, i had a lobster linguini. we ended both nights at the resort playing mahjong - just me and my three brothers, which was quite fun.
after checking out monday morning, we headed to woodshole to check out the marine biology lab's aquarium. it was small, and help mostly local stuff, but it was pretty cool. from there we headed back to boston. monday was our parents' actual 35th anniversary (the purpose of the whole trip) so we dinnered at grill23 - the best steakhouse in boston (from what i've heard). and it was pretty freaking amazing. they have truffled tater tots!! and kobe cap steak, which most of my family ordered, but i got the lamb. for dessert i had their bread pudding, which completely put me over the top, i was absolutely stuffered.
flew back to LA this morning. it's good to be back, and i'm definitely looking forward to going back to work.
